      @@sjg4388When you say "these days we don't distinguish them" how long do you mean?
      Like I said in my post to Hailey "When I first started learning 한국말, I figured it would be best to start with learning the Korean alphabet. I was instructed by some sources that:
      ㅐ = "ay" sound, like the "a" in "Day".
      ㅔ = "eh" sound, like the "e" in "Get"."
      The way American English speakers would say "Day" and "Get" anyway. lol.
      "I also actually heard the difference when I would listen, but sometimes I would hear no difference and sometimes I would be instructed that they sounded the same by other instructors."
      I was held back so long because I was trying to get even the simple alphabet pronunciation correct, but I kept getting conflicting information.
      I wanted to get each part perfect before moving on to the next thing to learn.
      There is a thing called a "paradigm" and all people have them. Look it up for more understanding. Yet, because of paradigms learners need all instructors to present the same information to change those hard set understandings.
      감사합니다 for any insights you care to share. 🙂

      @@titiadwi5486 wow! I didn’t realize how much time had passed since I commented! But to answer your question, I’m able to read hangul as if it’s second nature now. Reading wise, I’m very good but it’s another thing to listen, that’s always the hard part as I also struggled with this when I learned Spanish. I understand some when people speak - but whenever it’s a video, it’s much easier bc I can always make sure they have english and korean captions so I can look at both when needed. I only in like the past year started seriously learning the language - I only learned “안녕하세요” and how to pronounce the alphabet in the beginning of highschool then took a major break to focus on Spanish and now I’m almost a senior in college lol. I’m completely teaching myself Korean, I’m not taking any formal courses nor do I personally even know anyone in the city I live that is Korean that I could practice/speak it with. I listen to and consume Korean media on a daily basis so I’m constantly around it and it is the definitely the biggest factor of how I learn. I take notes, use the dictionary, conjugation websites, comment in korean, etc. But overall, still a work in progress lol, I’m very satisfied with where I am and sometimes I surprise myself but I really need to work on listening👍🏻

    We have something similar in Polish. "Rz" -"ż" or "ch"-"h" or "u"-"ó" make the same sound but are used in different words. Apparently in the past they sounded differently but not anymore. There are rules that help in knowing which to choose but people are bad at memorising them.

    It has so much similarity with 'Tamil' one of south Indian languages.In Tamil as well the vowels and consonants are added to form a syllable and there are few letters which are almost similar in sounds but not identical. We also would memorize the letters based one words and remember for specific words we should use a specific letter though there is similar letter which give athe same sound.Happy to know that.my mother tongue has so much similarity with the language I love

    This is honestly the same for English. Such as 'Their, There, and They're'. Their, is a way of ownership saying that its someones or something. There, is a way of saying where something is. They're is a shorter way to say "they are".

    Thanks to god. I saw this vid..... I first tried to differentiate, but honestly there's nothing sounds other but same 🎉🎉🎉 nd you clarified we 'memorize words' so nothing else even if their sounds are same 😅😅

    same in other languages, e.g. German Ä and E sound usually the same. Also in English Q and cue etc. Korean is by comparison very logical.

    Foreigner sounds like "Where cooked in?" Korean actually makes sense to an English speaker :D
