Cards in this set: Term           ㄱ Definition g / k   Since this can be both voiceless and voiced, foreigners may think of it as 'g' or 'k'.

Term         ㄷ Definition d / t   Since this can be both voiceless and voiced, foreigners may think of it as 'd' or 't'. However, it is a bit less voiced than 'd', and less strong than 't'.   t as in tall, but relaxed Term         ㄹ Definition r / l   Koreans don't hear the difference between 'r' and 'l'.

This is a bit tricky. This symbol is also used for those cosonants that appear by themselves in English (e.g., 't' in 'part'). Hangul cannot have just the consonants, so this vowel usually is added in those cases (트 in 파트) Term         ㅢ Definition u as in pull followed by ee as in feet, pronounced as one sound Term         ㅣ Definition i   ee as in feet
