Find the sounds in 새해 복 많이 받으세요
The reference transcription for 새해 복 많이 받으세요 is [sʰɛɦɛ po̞ŋma̠ni pa̠dɯsʰe̞jo]. Read adjacent consonants together without inserting extra vowels. Korean pronunciation changes when sounds meet. Follow the spoken transcription and connected example rather than reading each Hangul letter in isolation.
1.Aspirated consonants
In 새해 복 많이 받으세요: Let a clear puff of air follow the consonant marked /ʰ/. Keep the next vowel connected to it.
Watch out: Do not confuse the breathy release with the tight, low-airflow tense consonants.
2.The eu vowel
In 새해 복 많이 받으세요: Keep the tongue high and toward the back or center, with the lips unrounded. Listen for a vowel distinct from rounded /u/.
Watch out: English “oo” rounds the lips; that changes this vowel.
