Hello~
I'm Grace and your native Korean teacher.

How's your sentence reading going? ^^
Please make a habit of reading your Korean sentences.
I uploaded this Audio File so you can practice basic Korean pronunciation daily.

Look at this.
First ㄱ ㄴ ㄷ ㄹ ㅁ ㅂ ㅅㅇ(X) ㅈ ㅊ ㅋ ㅌ ㅍ ㅎ ㄲ ㄸ ㅃ ㅆ ㅉ 자음 Consonants
Middle ㅏㅑㅓㅕㅗ ㅛ ㅜ ㅠ ㅡ ㅣ ㅐㅒㅔㅖㅘ ㅙ ㅚ ㅝ ㅞ ㅟ ㅢ 모음 Vowels
End ㄱ ㄴ ㄷ ㄹ ㅁ ㅂ ㅅㅇ ㅈ ㅊ ㅋ ㅌ ㅍ ㅎ ㄲ ㅆ 받침 Final consonatns

Remember, English is made from the back of your throat, but 한글 is mainly made from your mouth.
The sound comes from the front.
In other words, you use entirely different muscles when you talk.
So you have to practice it over and over again to become natural.

In Korean, the shape of the lips of the vowels should be correct,
And you have to understand the difference between the pronunciation of consonants in the initial consonants and consonants in the final consonants.

The basics are the most important.
Before reading Korean sentences with Korean grammar in Korean conversation sentences.
Read the basic pronunciation over and over again.

I uploaded a video.

Короткие истории. 2. Хобби

NATASHA: What time is it? We’re going to be late!
TONY: It’s a quarter after seven. We’re on time. Don’t panic.
NATASHA: But I thought we had to be at the restaurant by 7:30 for 
the surprise party. We’ll never make it there with all this 
evening traffic.
TONY: Sure we will. Rush hour is almost over. Anyway, the party 
starts at 8:00. But I do need help with directions. Can you 
call the restaurant and ask them where we park our car?




LANGUAGE NOTES
• It’s a quarter after seven. This phrase is one of the most common ways of stating 
this time. It means: “It’s 15 minutes past 7:00.” Another possibility here is to simply 
say: “It’s seven fifteen.” In general you can say: “It’s a quarter past the hour.” How do 
we know the time of day? Look for context clues: “evening traffic.”
• In the dialog, Natasha and Tony are going to a surprise party. They need to be on time. 
Therefore there is an element of stress and urgency. When someone is stressed for 
time you can use expressions like: Don’t worry. / Don’t stress. / We’re fine. / We will 
be on time.
• Natasha thinks the surprise party begins at 7:30. There are two different ways to 
express this time. You may say simply “seven thirty” or “half past seven.”
• Rush hour is the time of day—usually in the morning and evening—when traffic is 
heavy because of people commuting to and from their workplace by bus, by car, by 
subway, on foot, etc.
