Thanks for the tips. Producing these two sounds correctly and consistently is definitely my biggest pronunciation problem left to solve. It's hard for me to practice because the more I focus on it, the harder it gets to distinguish them!

Omg my jaw dropped at 4:40 I made up the same system for pronuncing 가가 vs 가까 and 사사 vs 사싸, 바바 vs 바빠 when I used to teach my friends Korean. I also realsied and i’m pretty sure about this, that back in the day ㄱ was described as k/g and ㅂ was b/p etc…HOWEVER they’re not a mix of the two BUT the pronunciation is either one or the other depending on if the letter is used in the first character of a word or in the second: Example: 가게 so the first ㄱ sound in 가 is more like a K and the ㄱ in 게 is more like a G sound. 바보 the first ㅂ sounds like a P and second ㅂ sounds like a B.

The tissue tip is actually genius! It really helps to test the sounds Once I asked about the difference between 시 and 씨, and someone said the first sounds like "si", and the other like "ssi" 😑 I guess it's a difficult thing to explain lol, but this video really helped me out 😀

It was not my experience, but one person, who is, I think, a translator in Korea, told in one of his lectures that he did have 살 vs 쌀 situation in there. He said they were talking about wedding traditions, someone wanted to mention throwing rice, but it ended with everyone super confused why people throw meat at the newly weds xD

Summary of points from the video (plus ones I've seen from other sources too): Aspiration: ㅅ is aspirated (breathy like s + ha almost) ㅆ is not aspirated (little air) Tensing: ㅅ is softer/relaxed with bigger gap between upper and lower teeth + tip of your tongue ㅆ is tensed with tongue building pressure behind your teeth Duration: ㅅ sound is quicker ㅆ sound can be sustained longer Pitch: ㅅ-starting syllables are lower in pitch ㅆ-starting syllables are very noticably higher in pitch & emphasised Commoness ㅅ is the 'base' sound and so is used much more often ㅆ is more rare. If you had to guess which one, the chances are it is ㅅ and not ㅆ. Loan words: As ㅆ is closer to English 's' and ㅅ is quite unique, when you hear borrowed words from English, they tend to pronounce them with ㅆ and not how it is written (often ㅅ). 받침 ending sound rules: All Batchim rules apply for ㅆ just as they apply to all other double consonants. For example, expensive is 비싸 (bissa) and instead of being prounced as [bi + ssa] seperately, its pronounced [bis-ssa] which the ㅆ sound bleeding into the end of the consonant of the previous syllable. Note: In real life speech, natives don't always follow all these pronounciation differences exactly, nor 100% of the time. They may speak fast or more fluidly and it can sound different to what you expect. There are also different dialects and variations amongst generations. However, as you learn and get used to more conversational Korean, you can usually easily tell by context. Plus, you can always ask the speaker to repeat, or repeat what you are saying to communicate clearly. This is just from what I have seen and put together, feel free to share your thoughts.

Hi Billy, could you do a similar video for ㄱ, ㄲ & ㅋ? Mainly, I feel like I'm going crazy trying to pronounce ㄱ. I've watched just about every video I can find on youtube and nothing has clicked for me. It's between a G and a K , voiced vs unvoiced, where the sound comes from your mouth, etc. I feel like I'm just making a g or a k sound. It's driving me crazy! Along those same lines, I think I can distinguish between ㄱ,ㄲ & ㅋ but when I try basic dictation test I'm wrong just about every time. Or if you have any advice that would be much appreciated! Thank you!

It might move a tiny bit because your hands are moving, and air still does come out. ㅆ should just be significantly less than ㅅ.

Hello billy! Just a quick question.. is the past continuous tense different from the present continuous tense? Like when we want to talk about the structure of the sentence. Also how can I differentiate between the casual speech and the informal speech? Did you make some lessons about them?

I'm asking casue I've seen a lot of channels where teachers explain the progressive tense but they never explain the past one, just the present. So do they both have the same structure? and since there are more than 2 levels, are casual and plain the same?

@@sarahsami2998 You'd use what's called the Progressive Tense, and it can be used in the present or in the past tense.

This video was *great,* really. I’ve been looking around for a long time (years) for something explaining the difference between ㅅ and ㅆ and most “explanations” don’t mention the aspiration (that puff of air) with ㅅ as opposed to ㅆ. _But,_ for me, the hardest sounds to say and discriminate in hearing are 시 and 씨. Can you do a follow-up video on those?

kzitem.infoq2jF2zRqFjM also a great video explaining differences between ㅅ and ㅆ. That video emphases on asipration which Billy didn't emphasise too much here. The asipration difference makes sense and parallels the basic (slightly aspirated) ㄱ vs tense ㄲ, as well as every other consonant pair too.
