    and are both pronounced like the “ye” in “yen”. In modern Korean there is no change
    in sound. You will see both symbols used in Korean words. Consider them just different

    sounds in Korean. Koreans also have a hard time explaining the exact timing of the shift of
    these sounds. is a “B” sound, but there are cases where it also sounds like a “P”. is
    “D”, but in some cases it will be “T”. is “J” but sometimes it’s “CH”. And finally, is “G”,
    but in some cases it will sound like “K”.

    You will find that in the beginning of a word , , , and will tend to be the “stronger”

    (P), (T), (CH), (K) on the other hand are ALWAYS the hard sounds.
