Using consonants and vowels to create simple hangul and make syllables
When creating a hangul character you will always start with a consonant, and then follow it with a vowel. Let’s make some simple consonant + vowel combinations:
In Hangeul, words are divided into blocks of characters, each block representing one syllable.
For example, the word for the Korean dietary staple, kimchi, has two syllables and is thus divided into two blocks of hangul characters:
ㄱ | ㅣ | ㅊ | ㅣ | => | 김 | 치 | ||
ㅁ | ||||||||
g i m | ch i | 김치 (gimchi) |
김치 (gimchi)
(G/kimchi is a korean traditional fermented vegetable,mainly cabbage)
