I May Or May Not Have…. Uhhhh….. Uhhhhhhh

Is ㄹ pronounced as L or R?

This is probably one of the most common questions that beginners ask when learning 한글. Just like every beginner learners, I went through this as well which is why I decided to study pronunciation rules too. I created this post to help clear up any confusion.

When ㄹ is located at the beginning of a word, it sounds more like an R.

Example: 라디오 (ra-di-o), 레슨 (re-seun), 로맨틱 (ro-man-tik)

When ㄹ is located between two vowels, it sounds like an R.

Example: 다리 (da-ri), 사랑 (sa-rang), 어렵다 (eo-ryeob-dda), 모르다 (mo-reu-da), 노력 (no-ryeok), 매력 (mae-ryeok)

When ㄹ is located at the end of a word, it’s pronounced more like an L.

Example: 딸 (ddal), 아들 (a-deul), 월 (weol), 달 (dal), 칼 (khal), 연필 (yeon-pil), 교실 (gyo-sil)

When ㄹ is followed by a consonant or followed by another ㄹ, it sounds like L.

Example: 딸기 (ddal-gi), 힘들다 (him-deul-da), 몰라 (mol-la), 살자 (sal-ja), 고릴라 (go-ril-la)

When ㄹ comes after any consonant except ㄴ, ㄹ is pronounced as N.

Example: 생리 (saeng-ni), 국립 (gung-nip), 능력 (neung-nyeok)

When ㄹ comes before or after an ㄴ, both ㄹ and ㄴ are pronounced as ㄹ.

Example: 한류 (hal-lyu), 신라 (sil-la), 신랑 (sil-lang), 달나라 (dal-la-ra)

Disclaimer: Hope this helps but remember not to rely too much on romanizations and listen to the sounds properly as well.

This is a post that I shared on Amino app and I decided to post it here as well.

NCT 127 ‘NCT#127 Regular-Irregular’ Group Teaser

ATEEZ is ranked #34 for the September Boy Group Brand Reputation List!

Previously, for the August rankings, they were ranked #50!

….y'all nctzens that clown NCT ur disgusting and are cancelled as an nctzen. u think you suddenly got a fucking vip pass to clown NCT??

it’s one thing to throw around a few funny inside jokes that are harmless , it’s a whole other thing to come at their determination, self esteem, hardwork and the fame they damn well deserve

why do u guys think that loving your faves means putting them down and being “funny savage”?? you think NCT would really laugh at the posts you say about Taeyong’s hair? or that “jungwoo is a fucking crybaby and he should take more of that anxiety medicine to calm tf down his nerves LOL.”// or that NCT “is trying too hard”BITCH THE FUCK ARE THEY SUPPOSED TO DO?? try less?? not give you the music that we all love, not be the amazing and top dancers that they are??  or “oh well, here’s another 127 song. fuck off we want vision” or “Simon says give us nct vision” you think that’s cute? funny? witty? or whatever the fuck you think you are? no. that’s ugly and we fucking get it. like you said in all the other 786 posts, you want nct vision. but guess what, nct 127 have members with feelings and fucking eyes. you think they don’t see those ‘nct vision’ comments you put under their posts/ fucking selfies? you think they laugh and smile at those? or do you possibly think that they feel bad, feel like they’re not anticipated and that their own fans are sick of seeing them? or that they feel guilty and responsible for something they have no fucking control over and that is 100% SM’s fault. but instead yall think that SM will only see those ugly and disgusting comments. yet how the fuck do you think NCT know almost everything we say on twitter and instagram? cause they always want to see what were doing and saying, they want to be connected to us and yet tall say the grossest and snappy and mean remarks, that you and your mutuals may get, but NCT don’t and so when they see things like that you just look like a horrible ungrateful “nctzen” that’s never happy or proud of everything 127 do for us

and then, as if to make things worse you guys really out there now saying NCT wants what EXO has?? no bitch.

NCT said with their own damn voices that they did not want to be like other kpop groups, they do not want to be compared to other kpop groups and they do not want to be mistaken as other kpop groups. they said there is something that makes them special and different from other kpop groups and that they hope people will see that soon (and you’d think as nctzens we would already know that and yet some of us seem to have somehow missed just how different and special our faves are) they’ve had to tell this to western interviewers. they got called b*s and their name was written wrong twice.

as their fans, we should be the first ones to have their backs. we should be telling everyone why nct can’t be replaced, why nct are the unique group and people that they are. but instead I have to see fucking nctzens saying that NCT want what exo has, or that they wish to be exo. no. there is a difference between admiring their sunbaes and wanting to replicate them. and in no fucking interview or article have they ever said that they want to be the next exo or want to replicate them. I’m so fucking disappointed in the nctzens that are taking this “funny savage”, clowning too far to the point it’s just straight up disrespectful and hurtful behavior towards nct too. you guys are ugly. and because they see things like this you’re ruining the relationship between nct and nctzens that was actually once really good and peaceful and you’re taking away their respect and their ability to be proud to call nctzens their fans. so congratulations you fucking idiots.sorry for the rant but I’ve been seeing too much of this lately and I’m fucking sick of being quiet about it. unfortunately a lot of big nct blogs are taking part of this and I’ve unfollowed a lot of them. so if you have any recommendations of real nct blogs, pls I beg you give me their names I’m in need of positive vibe nct blogs

To all Noir fans,

as a Christmas gift for NOIR we came up with the idea of sending them our, international fans’ good wishes to make sure they feel how much we all love them! 

@noir-blackout will send a package to them and it will include short messages from international fans. If you would like to send your own message for the boys, you can write it on this form.

Please try to address your messages to all of NOIR and then include any message for your bias if you want to - member-specific messages (3 most popular things international fans want to say to them) will go on special cards to each member. 

We’ll be collecting messages until November 24th to ensure everything can be prepared and sent to NOIR in time for Christmas!

If you have any questions you can ask me or @noir-blackout.

Help us spread the word with reblogs and on other social media, tell all your friends about it! We hope many of you will participate in this event!

TUMBLR LORE

everyone talks about how tumblr should make an @everyone feature, but I have another proposal: an @anyone feature. this tags a few users at random and there’s no way of predicting who it will be. this will also solve nothing and make everything worse
