You got it basically right ^^ romanizing stuff is kinda hard but if ur pronouncing the 'o' in nohm with a long 'o' sound then you are right.

On second thought, is there any way you could include IPA pronunciations? That is way convenient.

International phonetic alphabet. Each sound in any language has a character that represents exactly how it is pronounced. That way there is no confusion.
Regardless, it's very helpful.

there is no true k or g sound in korean, its kind of a mix of the two.
It is the same concept for ㄹ. Its not R or L, just a mix of both.

Those are both pretty hard to learn to form your tongue in the correct manner and say it right. You can get away with both but people will know you really don't know Korean if you don't say it right but they'll know what you are saying. Maybe if i find more time, i'll try to go into detail on how tongue formations go and such for some of the harder characters to pronounce.

K and G => ㅋ and ㄱ if you don't use them for below the letters, like 헉.

I'll look into it. I've never dealt with it before so I will have to put some time into understanding it.

ㅔㅖ were omitted because they are very similar to ㅐㅒ. You can get away with pronouncing them the same.

But you know that using them wrongly = totally different meaning right?


Well it's really confusing when you're first learning Korean...so I sort of understand where he is coming from.

Have you tried going to Regional and Language options in your control panel, going to language, and checking Install Files for East Asian Languages. I believe that would allow you to read them.
