Korean script

I can now phonetically read almost any Korean word put in front of me. The only part I have yet to learn are the dipthongs and double consonants. Basically, dipthongs are two vowel sounds joined together in the same syllable to make a new vowel sound.

I can thank...

• (Once again) Judith Meyer for her online Lessons 1-5 (Lesson 6 is pending)

• Professor Oh, who I found on YouTube, and has some sensationally funny and helpful videos: The first two Learn Korean 1: Pronounce the Alphabet and Learn Korean 2: Write the Alphabet (Basic Consonants + Vowels) have already been immeasurably helpful. She gets silly in her KWOW (Korean Word Of the Week) videos, which--in my opinion--are entertaining to watch even if you have no intention of learning Korean.

Since Judith has not yet finished her sixth lesson--which would deal with the dipthongs I still have to learn--I plan on watching and taking notes on Professor Oh's next two videos:

Learn Korean 3: Double Consonants (and some words)
and
Learn Korean 4: Dipthongs (complex + compound vowels) with MINI DRAMA!

The girl has some serious video skillz.
