Introduction

Up until now to keep it simple, we've only learned about syllables that ended with a vowel, basically two letters put together to make a sound. Now we'll be learning about the final consonant that goes at the bottom of the syllables block, this final position is called a badchim. The badchim is written in the bottom/final position. A sentence example where the badchim is in red below:

This step will introduce you to the sounds in the final syllable position, some which are very different from their normal sounds.

Sound shifts

If a consonant in the final position followed by a vowel, the sound shifts over to the next syllable. The only sounds that don't shift over to the next syllable are ㅇ since it is weird to begin a weird with a "ng" sound and ㅎ becomes silent when followed by a vowel.


Pronunciation When Followed By a Vowel
Original Actual Pronunciation Audio
맞아 마자 (audio needed)
먹어 머거 (audio needed)
집에 지베 (audio needed)
좋아 조아 (audio needed)
놀아 노라 (audio needed)
필요하다 피료하다 (audio needed)
한국어 한구거 (audio needed)
졸업 조럽 (audio needed)
십일 시빌 (audio needed)

Different sounds

If a consonant in the final position and it is not followed by a vowel (meaning it is the last syllable of the word or followed by another consonant), then it may have a different pronunciation. Notice from the table below that many characters share the same sound when in the final position.


Pronunciation for Consonants in 받침 Position When Not Followed By a Vowel
Letter(s) Pronunciation Comment Examples Audio
ㄱ,ㄲ,ㅋ /k/ The /k/ sound is cut short. 억, 엌, 얶 all pronounced the same (audio needed)
ㅂ,ㅍ /p/ The /p/ sound is cut short. 십, 싶 both pronounced the same (audio needed)
/l/ sound If ㄹ is followed by a vowel it is a /ɾ/ sound. If there are two consecutive ㄹ together, the second ㄹ also takes an /l/ sound.
/ŋ/ sound ("ng" sound like in ring or hang) Normally ㅇ acts as a placeholder for a consonant and makes no sound, only in the final position does it make a sound.
ㄷ, ㅅ, ㅆ, ㅈ, ㅊ, ㅌ, ㅎ /t/ sound The /t/ sound is cut short. 옫, 옷, 옸, 옺, 옻, 옽, 옿 all pronounced the same
  • Note: ㅃ, ㄸ and ㅉ can't appear in the final position.

Double Consonant Cluster

Sometimes there are two consonants in the final position such as the ㄺ in the word 닭 or the ㄼ in 여덟. We will cover this in the step 7 in the final section. Just be aware that is its possible to have to consonants in the final syllable even though it's not common.
