3 Korean Pronunciation Liaison Rules Tested in Audio Scripts

Audio scripts reveal how written Hangul transforms into spoken Korean sounds:

1. Liaison Rule (연음 법칙)

When a syllable ending in a Batchim consonant is followed by a vowel starting with ㅇ, the final consonant moves into the initial position of the next syllable (e.g., 한국어 [한구거], 음악 [으막]).

2. Nasalization Rule (비음화)

When consonants ㄱ, ㄷ, ㅂ meet nasal consonants ㄴ, ㅁ, they change sound to ㅇ, ㄴ, ㅁ respectively (e.g., 국물 [궁물], 합니다 [함니다]).

3. Aspiration Rule (격음화)

When consonants ㄱ, ㄷ, ㅂ, ㅈ meet ㅎ, they fuse into aspirates ㅋ, ㅌ, ㅍ, ㅊ (e.g., 축하 [추카], 입학 [이팍]).

3-Step Auditory Shadowing Blueprint for Listening Success

Follow this 3-step shadowing technique to double your listening comprehension score:

• Step 1 (First Blind Listen): Listen to the audio track once without reading the transcript and attempt to answer the question.
• Step 2 (Transcript Read-Along): Play the audio track a second time while reading along with the Hangul transcript, marking unfamiliar vocabulary.
• Step 3 (Out-Loud Shadowing): Play the audio a third time, repeating each line out loud half a second behind the native speaker to mirror their intonation.
