Korean Alphabet: Diphthongs and Double Consonants
This vowels are a little hard to pronounce the first time around. What helped me with the pronunciation is actually using it and listening to native speaker using these diphthongs. I will be posting video clips of people using these diphthongs when I post vocabulary words, so if you don't get it now, don't worry!
Another thing that I felt the need to add in with this one is the double consonant sounds. This is usually paired with diphthongs when diphthongs are being taught. Now, when I was in the process of learning this language, there was a teacher who told me that it is actually easy for Americans to pronounce the double consonant sounds (this may or may not be true, so don't truly take my word for it!) . The reason for the double consonant sound is to give more of an accent on that consonant. Not all of the consonants will use the double consonant sounds, so please take note of it. As you can see in the picture, the double consonants have the prefix ssang before it.
I hope that this will be useful in learning the Korean language.

First Declension Nouns (Latin)
Latin is literally the fourth language that I have started on, and I have realized how this is so close to the romance languages (being the bases for them). So, I'm going to start this language out with the first declension nouns. These nouns usually have an ending of -a. So here is how you would decline these nouns.
Singular Nominative: -a
Singular Genitive: -ae
Singular Dative: -ae
Singular Accusative: -am
Singular Ablative: ā
Plural Nominative: ae
Plural Genitive: -ārum
Plural Dative: īs
Plural Accusative: ās
Plural Ablative: īs
Now this is a lot to take in, right? But have you realized some similarities in the endings? Singular Genitive, Singular Dative, and Plural Nominative have the same ending of -ae. That makes it easier on us, isn't it? To tell you guys the truth, I'm able to have each of these declension endings memorized in less than a half an hour. What I usually tell people is to learn it in the way that you can learn it. Mine is just memorizing. So, good luck if you are learning Latin!
