pronunciation of 있네요? Hello, can somebody please confirm that the pronunciation of 있네요 in this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0ZOipYx2cEU is correct? I am not sure because it sounds like "indeyo" - what is the rule behind? Thanks for explaining

The pronunciation is 인네요 (inneyo).

They are right. It's pronunciation is /inneyo/. But I do understand why it sounds like /indeyo/ to Korean learners. When you say /n/ sound in English, you put your tongue behind your upper teeth but Koreans put their tongues slightly lower than that. Actually almost between your teeth but not like English 'th' sound. That is why it sounds like /de/ not /ne/. It is abruptly sounded compare to the English /n/ sound. Hope it helps!

I am not a native speaker, however I believe the pronunciation would be “it-ne-yo”. The ㅆ would sound like a t or d because it is at the end of the syllable to the left of a consonant. Hope this helps!
