When I speak to Korean-Canadians or Korean-Americans, they usually agree that it initiates as R and ends as L. Talking Korean with Koreans has confirmed this. I've never heard a Korean person say "Lushia". That I've lived here for 4 years, take weekly Korean lessons and am somewhat conversant in the language. But I have a Korean lesson in a few hours, I will write 러시아, ask my Korean teacher to say it, not explaining why, and if she comes back with an 'R' sound, I will let you know. -S-[/QUOTE] Just to quickly jump into this debate, ㄹ is neither "r" or "l". At best, you can say it's inbetween the two sounds. It's made by placing your tongue on your gums just above your upper teeth, and rolling down: similar to how you make an "l" noise, but your tongue should be much lower. So tongue-placement-wise, it's more similar to an "l" than an english "r" (where the back of your tongue is curled near your throat). However, phonetically, the sound that is made tends to sound closer to an english r than an english l. Typically Koreans use the basic ㄹ sound when trying to make "l" sounds in english, which leads to the stereotype that Koreans can't pronouce Ls: For proof of stereotype: see However, if the ㄹ is on the bottom of the character, or if you have doubled ㄹs, then your tongue moves up more in your mouth and the sound is closer to an english L. examples: 말 - mal (speaking/language/horse) 빨리 - Bballi (quickly) note, however, that the consonant at the end of characters is much shorter/muted when compared to consonants in english. Even between the above two words, the L sounds are different (Bballi being the closest to an english L) Most people and transliteration systems agree that a simple ㄹ is best represented by the letter r, and and ending or double ㄹ is best represented by an L, but you need to pronounce it like neither when actually speaking korean. Best to think of it as inbetween both sounds: like an spanish r without the roll. | ||

All of a sudden my ally types this 감자나 쳐먹어 이상한 녀석아 Does anyone know what exactly it means? Google translate tells me it's something about potatoes and genitalia but doesn't make much sense other than that :p | ||

Doesn't work like that, yeah. ㅣ+ ㅓ = ㅐ also doesn't work. | ||

I'm very new to this as you can tell, I just checked out these lessons on my spare time at work yesterday, managed to learn them all! Very happy about that, thougth it would be much harder. Now I just have to learn to actually read and speak as well  | ||

Now I just have to learn to actually read and speak as well Right, you can't find these next to eachother. Actually none of these (ㅣㅓㅏㅐㅔ) can be found next to eachother. You might see some of them "together" with these though: ㅜ ㅗ ㅡ. Like this: ㅘ,ㅙ,ㅚ,ㅝ,ㅞ,ㅟ,ㅢ And, again, you can't find ㅜ combined with ㅡ or ㅗ or any other way. You can probably see the pattern by now. Only one vertical (ㅣ) and one horizontal (ㅡ) vowel per a 'syllable' or whatever they call it. | ||
