This is it, the third and last floor. 30 done, 8 to go. Once again, I get absolutely destroyed by yet another East Asian language. This one hit the stopwatch a bit harder than Japanese and Chinese, even though it's technically easier. But Duolingo made sure the word "speed" in "speedrun" was nothing but a hoax. Don't be fooled though, Korean does have its own nuisances, especially in the phonetics. Hangul is fun though, and quite straightforward.

this guy is literally so underrated he's literally the king of duolingo speedrunning
Hahaha thanks! Not sure if the king, but it's quite an idiotic and mentally draining labor. Someone has to do it though.
@@jccbm mentally draining labour ey, that's my kind of video!
Absolutely
i find it amazing how quickly he found the explanation for ă and ㎠pronunciation because learners struggle with that so much when hearing it the first time
To be honest, the phonetics of this language caught me off guard quite frequently. It's a bit counter-intuitive at first, but it seems somewhat simple once you get used to it.
@@jccbm yeah starting learning alone is quite difficult but once you learned the basics it goes really well learning about the fundamentals of the language
As a phonologist your pronunciations of languages are amazing! I'm binging all your videos now. When you mentioned phonology and phonemes I was like this dude knows shit hahaha
There are some very intricate intricacies (?? phonetic details cmon) that you picked out, for example how ă· sounds like a hard t at the beginning (it is aspirated but low tone) and how ă ㎠can sound like b/d (there's this thing called denasalisation). Also you're a natural at figuring grammar stuff too. Subscribed!
Thanks! I've learned a lot as a side effect of this series! It's a fun journey
Your channel is so underrated for having so much effort being put into everything, I just love how I could just watch and just like learn some new things about different languages while being entertained, thank you for like Giga chading through this, and I hope some day more people will stumble across your videos :]
Wow, thank you! That's been the aim lately, to learn and share the knowledge while trying to be somewhat entertaining. The channel is slowly but steadily growing though, but thanks a lot for your good wishes!
i watched one video and now im obsessed with the series - thanks
Hahaha nice! Hope you enjoy
dude holy shit the way they teach korean on duolingo is a fucking crime
16:30 As a native korean myself, the difference between "ìë í ê°ìžì"means The Person is going back to home and "ìë í êłìžì" means U r going back to home or whatever
âgo in peaceâ (when listener is leaving and speaker is staying) vs âstay in peaceâ (listener is staying and speaker is leaving)
In early modern korean, ă (oe) was pronounced as ö and ă (wi) was pronounced as ĂŒ. But now there is little distinction between ìš, ìž, ì (they are almost all pronounced 'we').
It's interesting to see how sounds change or disappear over time. Thanks for the info!
íê”ìžìŒëĄì,ìŽ ëêžì ëłŽêł ë ìŒìŽ ìíëČłì ìŽíŽíì”ëë€đ
First of all very entertaining video! Loved watching it (probably more because I'm a Korean xD)
Just wanted to comment this cuz you struggled with the final consenents-
The only consenents that can be pronounced at the end are
ă±, ăŽ, ă·, ăč, ă , ă , ă and all other consenents get changed to one of those.
ă , ă , ă , ă , ă , ă are pronounced as ă·,
ă±, ăČ, ă are pronounced as ă±,
and all other consenents are pronounced as what they sound like when at the front.
It's quite intuitive for a native but I do imagine it being really confusing for learners ;)
Also, your pronunciation at 7:00 was like literally perfect wtf
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it. Yeah it's weird at first, but once you get the hang of it it's not that hard.
People who claim the Korean letters are easy to pick up must wind up with some horrendous pronunciation in real street-language at a natural pace, if they think their verbal counterparts have more that a passing approximation.
Copy pasting your comment into my notes because I'm currently in the quagmire of learning end consonants and this was incredibly helpful XD Thank you!
Also called ìì ì ëì늏 ê·ìč, it's a rule
How good are you at remembering the languages after speedrunning
Really depends on the language and how much time I put into editing (which is basically a slow and repetitive review). I've got some content planned to see how much I remember, since I'm also curious đ€Ł
Your editing skill is great đ
I enjoyed this a lot. As a person who is learning Korean and trying to learn as many languages as possible, it was interesting to see someone who doesn't have much experience prior try to speedrun the language. đ Definitely subscribing and coming back for more videos!
Glad you enjoyed it! It is a weird language when encountered for the first time.
@@jccbm Yeah. Something I've noticed is that eventually once you get used to the lettering and start learning more, you pick up on more things as you go.
@@maxlovesk-pop Yeah, there's many intimidating barricades at first (some sounds are quite alien for an english speaker, subject-object markers, etc) that aren't really that big a deal once you get used to them.
7:12 I was dead at this part for a solid minuteđ
I can't hear the difference between Korea aspirated and non-aspirated consonants. Then the vowel stuff is also too similar unless I can compare them almost immediately after the other. I want to say Hindi was the same for me. So if I feel like a real challenge down the road, those languages will really teach me how to hear subtle sounds.
Yeah, picking up these subtle differences in the middle of regular speech is quite hard, I struggled a lot too. Sometimes it just comes out naturally given the other letters nex to them.
B/P, D/T, R/L, Are actually mixed sounds so like in Busan, the B actually will sound like B to some and P to others but is kind of both LOL
Yeah, it's a bit confusing. So is R/L in other Asian languages
9:18 had me dying, that is possibly my favorite video of all time. Just started learning Korean which I think led to this video being recommended to me, you are hilarious and you editing is top notch, glad I found you.
Wait this guy only has 1k subs? Impossible.
Gotta start somewhere, right?
your videos are dope!!
7:12 this edit is something out of hell đđđ
Quite literally, yes.
Okay this is so much fun to watch
I'm gonna have to binge watch all your other duo speedruns
That's quite a daunting task. Hope you enjoy and learn a bit!
Iâm Korean and I find this very entertaining đ€Łđ€Łđ€Łđ€Łđ€Ł
What do you think is the easiest language you've learned yet on duolingo
As a Spanish speaker, I'm heavily biased into Italian and Portuguese as the easiest ones. In a vacuum, i still think Italian is pretty easy. Portuguese too but maybe a bit less.
@@jccbm ty
The consonant going at the last are usually pronounced differently when it's alone itself but when there is an another word starting with a vowel it is pronounced correctly. Kinda like french where s is only pronounced before a vowel. Plus as a native Korean I literally found so many mispronunciations on duolingo like for instance, ëëì ë§'s "s" aren't pronounced d but rather pronounced just s
Iâm curious how do you still have the old Duolingo?
Omg yes i have the new duolingo but i want the old duolingođ
@@YaguiKippis Yeah. I remember him announcing a final stream to get the rest of the languages a few weeks ago. Shortly after Duolingo changed, and I thought, "I hope he got through the last one. I would suck to have a series and a few don't have the 1st checkpoint format."
This was done around june-july I believe.
Minuscule spoilers ahead: Every single language was done in the old format, wooohooo
Funnily enough I still have the old version in my browser. Don't know why, it hasn't updated yet.
6:02 Certainly right lol. As to explain, all end sounds are changed to any of
ă±(k/g),ăŽ(n),ă·(t/d),ăč(l),ă (m),ă (p/b),ă (ng).
What consonant is will be changed is primarily determined by the original consonant itself, but can be changed more by interacting with the following syllable.
ă±
Finally new video!
Damn it took me long to finish this one :(
7:14 cucumber milk?! đ„ đ„
đ
IDK, Duolingo being weird AF
@@jccbm ikr
More than 3 hours, wow!!!!
The final consenant changing is called âpatchim/batchimâ ë°ìčš, I havenât seen a comment mention it by name yet
"ì°ëŠŹë... sounds like urine... wee? = we" i laughed so hard
How does your brain just comprehend this.
you can create letters like ì, êœ, ìŽ in hangul(Korean writing system)
English has literally more vowel sounds than Korean (26). And if we don't count the "y" and "w" "vowels", it's only 8 (a, u, i, e, o, eo, ue and ae).
True, but written English is stupid and only has 5 (or 6*)
@@jccbm what's the 6th? y?
im also learning korean and this is so fun to watch!
Glad you enjoyed it!
I'm doing Korean Duolingo . I'm in section 1 unit 7 .
I hvnt got the philosophical sentence ' the balls are big ' yet . I am eagerly waiting for it . Bahahah .
Never thot the creators wud make a sensible sentence in Duolingo đ
28:30 ă is not a pair with ă beacuase ă (yu) is vowel and ă (p) is consonant.
ă (b) is a piar with ă (p).
â€đđcette vidĂ©o est super intĂ©ressant đ
" êł” ë€ ìŽ íœ ë ë€ "
Korean is tough af... I can speak Chinese, Vietnamese, and English, I also used to know German and Russisn... the only language I've given up on was Korean, because of how challenging it was
Will you add Zulu to the wheel since it was recently added to Duolingo?
Kinda đ
Another good video
Glad you enjoyed it!
@@jccbm OMG i didnt think that you would respond
I might've sent the spreadsheet to your inquiry email (the one in your about page). Try checking that one
Perfect, thanks!
Why is there so much konglish in Duolingo lol this was entertaining, maybe not ultra accurate though for actual language learning lol
for recognizing sounds and differences in pronunciation. also to accelerate reading speed. if an english word is written in hangul, you should be able to instantly recognize it
@@newhampshirefanclub yeah because they have a very specific look. ButâŠshould be teaching Korean not konglish lol
@@jakelefkowitz4570 the konglish is only in the beginning lessons, he barely scratched the surface of material. tbh tho iâm not really pro-duolingo i think itâs rather shit iâm just explaining why itâs that way
You made a little mistake at 8:14: you typed ë§= mas but it is actually "mat" bc of the vowels who is at the end of the word lol
Thanks for the correction. To this point I literally don't understand final consonants đ€Ł
im really looking foword to esperanto
AnkaĆ mi!!
Just a matter of time
Monda OrganizaĔo pri Sano?
why you have stiil the old duolingo backroundđ€š
101% correct
What's your mother tongue/native language?
As a korean the translation isnât that good but idk its funny đđđ
That's because English is stupid and has "You" and "You" for both singular and plural đ
@@jccbm yep and korean has habitual remark(ordinary way to speak) and honorifics so translator and duolingo mix them and use đđ

HI from poland
Hello there!
Korean is kinda hard
Bro has commited blasphemy without any hesitation, repent
dont beat yourself up about not being able to understand it, duolingo is infamous with korean learners cause it doesnt explain *shit*
none of the particles like ë/ì, ê°/ìŽ, ì are explained on their own, and sentence endings like ì”ëë€/ă ëë€... they dont even show how verbs and adjectives have a dictionary form (-ë€)
but hey, i guess if youre just learning for a speedrun, maybe you dont have to know it that deep
i know korean
ê±°ííí
Like if you lear the name of the letters it will be so much easier.
Can u do Hungarian plzzz
Patience, young padawan
hELLO
