Pronunciation Guide
In words that end with a p, t, or k sound, the final consonant is unaspirated, meaning there is no audible breath released. In the pronunciation of the characters, an asterisk (*) is used to denote these unaspirated consonants. For example, to say yut* (one), you place your tongue behind your teeth to pronounce the t but no audible breath is released (aspirated). With sup* (ten), you close your lips to pronounce the p but the lips are not opened again. To say look* (six), you tighten your throat to pronounce the k sound but no aspiration occurs.
