Hello everyone!
I was compelled to write this quick announcement regarding the new Google Translate features.
The google translate now features "Listen" which allows you to listen to the pronunciation of the Korean you type.
Please check it out if you'd like to listen to the proper pronunciations of certain Korean words!
I believe it will be of a good resource for your listening and speaking exercises.

나는 세계 여행했어요! lol
Please check out the audio recordings of my own voice on the far right-hand column of this blog for Korean listening and speaking exercises.
I also include my own first few audio recordings in Korean below.
Audio Recordings:
I am embedding audio files to the posts. I hope that these audio files will help you with your listening skills and pronunciation. I am pretty impressed by the quality of the pronunciation of this computer-generated speaker. Her pronunciation of each letter is quite accurate and her intonation is pretty good. I encourage you to listen to these audios to practice your listening skills. I also recommend that you watch Korean TV programmes to improve your listening and speaking skills.
Learn Korean Language: Let's Speak Korean - 180
I find this programme very helpful for learning Korean. You can listen to a few sentences found in ordinary conversations and they are explained to you in English and so it will be easier to understand them. You can also practice listening and speaking in Korean. I have also made some explanations of the sentences below.
Eg.
안녕하세요! = Hello! [Formal]
친구한테 문자 메시지 보내는 거야? = Are you sending a txt message to your friend?
Korean words:
보내다 = send
보내는 거야? = Are you sending? (Are you doing? - ~는 거야?)
친구 = friend
문자 메시지 = text message
음성 메시지 = voice message
한테 = see (Particles - 께/에게/한테)
응. 아직 서툴러서 시간이 걸려. = Yes. Because I'm still clumsy, it takes time.
아직 = still
서투르다 = clumsy
Pronunciation
The most difficult part of Korean Grammar is probably to pronounce words and sentences correctly. Individual consonants and vowels' pronunciation can be listened to from "Korean Alphabets" section. It is very helpful for beginners.
And for those who wish to hear more dynamic spoken Korean, I have posted many videos so please check them out. The best way to learn pronunciation is to listen to the words repeatedly.
Learning Korean for the first time!
