hidden12345 Posted January 16, 2007 at 05:05 AM Report Share Posted January 16, 2007 at 05:05 AM Are the tense consonants (ㄲㄸㅃㅆㅉ) in hangul produced with the same feeling in your throat that you get if you really exaggerate the third tone in standard mandarin, and the very apex of the dip? (the only way i can describe that feeling exactly, is it is as if you've put so much outward tension on your airpipes that new air can no longer pass in or out and all sounds must now be made with your tongue and mouth cavity.) thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atitarev Posted January 16, 2007 at 05:56 AM Report Share Posted January 16, 2007 at 05:56 AM Think of doubled consonants in Italian, Spanish, Japanese, Russian, Arabic, etc. In English, French and Chinese dialects doubled conosnants are probably non-existent. or think in English: set-table for double TT take-care for double KK, etc. Double consonants are not aspirated and voiceless in Korean (take-care to remove the aspiration from the above 2 examples).
