Four major problems in Korean pronunciation

weakness one: adding Chinese tones at will

Every word in Chinese has a tone, and one, two, three, four tones is a familiar pronunciation rule, but in Korean, every word has no one, two, three, four tones. This makes us unable to find the north for a while, and we will get used to speaking Korean words according to the tone and rhythm of Chinese intentionally or unintentionally, but it sounds stiff and unnatural. Be careful from the beginning of Korean? Don't fall into the quagmire influenced by Chinese tones.

▲ Tip: The best way to make yourself adapt to Korean language habits as soon as possible and consciously carry out compulsory training is to listen and read more, and the materials should choose dialogues or articles suitable for your own level. Korean drama scripts, texts and even news can be our weapons to conquer Korean.

① Listen repeatedly (don't read) first, and feel every word of the reader with your heart.

② Follow the tape and imitate reading. Many people only care about themselves when they follow, the recording is recorded, and I read mine, which should be resolutely put an end to. At first, listen to half a sentence and stop, then imitate it. When imitating, imagine yourself as the character in it, and then the length of the sentence can be gradually increased.

③ Many people stop after the first two steps. In fact, we miss the third step, and we follow and recite as a whole. When you are familiar with it to a certain extent, throw away the material and read it completely with the recording. Without stopping in the middle of the whole reading, you can better feel the coherence of the conversation, and combine the phonetic and intonation features you just felt in fragments into a whole, so that you can have a more macro grasp. At this stage, we should focus on listening to the feelings of Koreans, and gradually transition from proficiency to nature. Because of the time, it may not be realistic to recite every article, but choosing some excellent articles to recite is a kind of wealth accumulation and the cornerstone of pursuing a substantial leap in language.

④ self-examination? Recording. After practicing for a while, if you want to experience the effect, then record your own voice intact and compare it with the original sound. At first, you may feel that the difference is too big, but don't lose heart, and soon you will feel that the whole feeling of your speech is striding towards the standard and authentic Korean.

as the saying goes, I am familiar with 3 Tang poems, and I can recite them even if I can't recite them. ? In order to get rid of the dilemma of Chinese-style Korean completely, it is very important to make unremitting efforts, especially in the junior and middle stages of Korean learning. As long as you keep practicing every day, you will definitely achieve a leap in pronunciation quality one day inadvertently.

soft rib 2: you can't tell the loose tone from the tight tone

When learning Korean, China students often feel the most difficult thing is how to distinguish the loose tone from the tight tone. Korean consonants are divided into loose sounds, tight sounds and aspirated sounds according to airflow and tension. When China people pronounce Korean consonants, they often tend to pronounce them according to Korean initials. Therefore, many people think that Korean loose sounds and tight sounds are the same, and they can't be distinguished well when pronouncing them. Sometimes, when a tight tone is pronounced at the beginning of a word, it is often pronounced as a loose tone when it appears in other positions. According to the actual situation, it is not because it is difficult to pronounce the tense, but because it is not paid attention to. Tight tone and its corresponding loose tone pronunciation parts are basically the same, the difference is that when tight tone is made, the pronunciation organs should be strained first, so that the airflow is blocked in the laryngeal cavity, and then the glottis is broken, resulting in throat squeezing. In reading aloud, many people think that it sounds almost the same anyway, and they try to muddle through the pronunciation. Do you know that a little relaxation will make a world of difference? In addition, Korean pine sounds are only similar to some sounds of Chinese Pinyin, but they are not exactly the same. Many people will feel that loose pronunciation is not clear when they are beginners, for example? Sometimes it sounds like both G and K, neither G nor K. In fact, this is the real feature of Korean pine pronunciation, which needs our careful understanding.

weakness 3:? What should I do?

Maybe many people take Korean consonants? There is no way to pronounce, knowing that you are inaccurate, but you don't know where to start to correct it. When? When it appears as the initial sound in a sound, many people pronounce it as L or R. When it is used as the radio, many people pronounce it as a Chinese consonant. In fact, this is all our wishful thinking. ? Is there a key to pronunciation that is easy to be ignored by everyone? That is, the tip of the tongue should be placed near the upper gum, and then air is pumped to make the air flow rush out into a vibrato. Tongue position is the decision? The key to accurate pronunciation is that only when the tongue position is correct can it not be pronounced as L or R. When it is used as a radio, the tip of the tongue is still pressed against the upper gum, so that the air flows through both sides of the tongue to form a sound. The Chinese Er Hua sound requires the tongue to roll up much more, which has already exceeded the upper gum. This is the biggest difference between the two. How to send Korean to receive the sound? At the same time, the tongue should be more convergent, and don't habitually roll to the position where the sound is pronounced.

it is no exaggeration to say that? A sound can determine whether your Korean pronunciation is really standard, and you can directly judge whether you are speaking Chinese Korean or not through this sound. It is enough to see the importance and difficulty of this sound, but the secret of overcoming it has been told to everyone, remember? Put the tip of the tongue on the upper gum, and the rest is that you have repeatedly imitated and obtained the true biography.

weakness 4: vowels? ，? Who's who?

influenced by Korean habits, you can't distinguish Korean pronunciation? ，? There are many people here, in fact, this is understandable. Vowel? When pronouncing, it is important that the lips are rounded forward and kept unchanged. Many people can't keep the rounded mouth shape unchanged when pronouncing, so it is naturally pronounced as ou in Chinese Pinyin. Therefore, we should pay attention to the degree of round lips and the rules that remain unchanged. ? Many people pronounce this sound as e in Chinese pinyin, which is also incorrect. There is a difference between the two. If you have listened carefully to pronunciation reading, you will feel that these two sounds are indeed a little different, but you don't know how to find the key points of pronunciation. Send it? The key to this sound is that its phoneme is different from that of E, and the back of its tongue is lower than that of E. In addition, we should pay attention to the fact that the mouth should be half-open and not rounded. Beginners may meet many people? ，? Just mix, this is still because I haven't mastered the pronunciation method. What I need to do is to memorize the main points and practice more.

▲ Tip: Pronunciation practice is a very important basic link on the road to success. Many people hate boring practice, which leads to poor pronunciation foundation and even affects their confidence in learning, which is not worth the loss. Practice your pronunciation?

① open your mouth. Not opening your mouth is a taboo in learning a language, which means that you are destined to learn dumb Korean from the first day of learning Korean. Overcoming shyness and losing face is the first step to learn a language well. No one who really learns a foreign language well is thin-skinned.

② enlightenment+imitation. That is to understand the essentials of pronunciation, which is not simply to remember, but to truly understand the true meaning of the key points of pronunciation through imitation practice. Mouth shape, tongue position and phoneme are the objects of our understanding. When practicing, we should pronounce loudly, observe ourselves in the mirror and remember the standard mouth shape demonstrated by the teacher.

③ Practice pronunciation by combining words and sentences. Simply popping out of your mouth, you will get bored after a long time. It doesn't matter, we can take out new words and texts to read. This is not only related to the practice intonation we mentioned earlier, but also practiced pronunciation and remembered what we have learned. It's killing three birds with one stone!

The most common weaknesses in Korean pronunciation learning can be summarized as the above four points. Of course, there will be differences in individual learning, and everyone will have their own weaknesses. It is exactly what we have to do to quickly find the crux and correct it. Pronunciation, like human face, also needs our long-term care, makeup, maintenance and even plastic surgery. We should realize that pronunciation learning is actually a long-term repeated practice, from quantitative change to qualitative change. Please remember,? Perseverance, rotten wood does not fold; Perseverance, stone can be carved? !
