3. Tensification<br />

The following shows the difference between untens<strong>ed</strong> and tens<strong>ed</strong> consonants<br />

in Korean:<br />

Untens<strong>ed</strong><br />

ㄱ<br />

ㄷ<br />

ㅂ<br />

ㅅ<br />

ㅈ<br />

<br />

<br />

<br />

<br />

<br />

Tens<strong>ed</strong><br />

Sometimes it’s easier to tense a consonant when it’s before another strong<br />

consonant, rather than assimilating it like we did with the nasal consonants<br />

ㄴ and ㅁ.<br />

Examples<br />
