milod Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 Interesting... Note that the Hangul has three syllables for the word "style." <grin> Technically they read - if not part of a word - Suh-Stah-Eel. Or "Eer," given that a "Lee-air" in the alphabet stands for either "L" and "R" sounds. m Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As a joke my wife will pronounce words like they are written in Hangul. Very funny. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
milod Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 Evol... Yupper... One time in Seoul a friend asked me to read the sign on a store. Your wife will love this one. It read, as remember the way I tried to transliterate the Hangul, "Gol-up-uh Ee-koo-Ee-puh-muhn-tuh" Yup, "Golf Equipment." <Chortle> Hey, at least I could always find a dabang... I gave up on trying to pronounce the Korean for "toilet" not only because of the difficulty, but because anywhere I went in Korea they knew "toilet" as well as "beer" or "Kopee," both of which increase the use of the other word. <grin> All kidding aside, I think anyone interested even in learning English well should learn Hangul. It really taught me a lot about how modern English ignores some realities of pronunciation. Different in different English dialects, but the general rule that we ignore those realities remains true. m Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
