Re:alphabet pronunciations
hello,
pronounciation of the O (circle):
the position is in front of a word this 'O' doesn't need to be pronounced. all korean vowels (a, ya, eo, yeo, o, yo, oo, yoo, eu etc.) cannot stand on their own in written format and must use 'O' to start with. when it falls at the end of a word then it's pronounced as "ng".
