Can aspirated consonants be compared to half-size "tsu" in Japanese? In trying to learn how to pronounce the different sounds of the Korean language, is it fair to say that aspirated consonants have the same affect as a half-sized "tsu" in Japanese? Ignoring whether you pronounce ㅃ as "p" or "b" sound, just for the sake of explanation, would 오빠 be pronounce more like "op pa" that "o pa?" Where a little bit of the sound of the aspirated consonant is added to the end of the first syllable and then as well at the start of the second? If you're confused about what I mean, send me a message before you answer my question as the person who starts a question can't respond to it!
