π‘ Pro Tips from the Korean Ladder
βΈ
γ is silent at the start of a syllable (μ = "a"), but sounds like "ng" at the end (κ° = "gang")
βΈ
γΉ is tricky β sounds like "r" between vowels, "l" at the end of a syllable. Like Flash's micro, it depends on position.
βΈ
Double consonants (γ², γΈ, etc.) are tense β say them harder, like you're proxy rushing.
βΈ
γ is NOT "oh" β it's "eo" like in "young". Most common mistake by foreigners.
