| RuleName | Liaison: Single Batchim |
| Wikibooks | LinkingIf a syllable with initial consonant ㅇ(meaning there is no sound) is either a postposition or a suffix/an ending, and it follows terminal syllable(받침, batchim), and if there is no addition of syllable, then that terminal syllable is moved to the position of ㅇ, as it is. Single consonants and tense consonants ㄲ, ㅆ are moved entirely, and for other double syllable like ㄼ, ㄾ, second component only moves (but ㅅ becomes ㅆ).For the first case: ex) 깎아[까까] 옷이[오시] 있어[이써] 낮이[나지] 꽂아[꼬자] 꽃을[꼬츨] 쫓아[쪼차] 밭에[바테] 앞으로[아프로] 덮이다[더피다] 부엌이[부어키] 낯을[나츨] 밭의[바틔/바테] 무릎에[무르페] 꺾어[꺼꺼] 쫓을[쪼츨] 같은[가튼] 짚으면[지프면] 섞여[서껴] 높여[노펴] |

| Tammy | ① Batchim ＋ ㅇWhen batchim is followed by ㅇ, the batchim will be combined with the vowel following.For example, when you read 먹 어「Eat」continuously, the pronunciation becomes [머거].Also, 이것은 (This) is pronounced as [이거슨] when we read continuously.Ex: 먹어(Eat)→[머거]、 이것은(This is)→[이거슨]when 이응 comes after double batchim, you read both double batchim.For example, 젊어요(Young) becomes [절머요] and 앉아(sit) becomes［안자].However, if ㄷ (디귿)and ㅌ(티읕) in batchim is followed by 이, it will be pronounced as ㅈ (지읒)and ㅊ(치읒) each.For example, 굳이 (dare) becomes[구지] and 같이 (together) becomes [가치].Also, if ㅇ comes after ㅎ in batchim, ㅎ will not be pronounced.For example, 좋아 (Like) is pronounced as [조아] and 싫어 (Dislike) is pronounced as [시러].Ex： 좋아(Like)→[조아]、 싫어(Dislike)→[시러] |

| finRom | t |
| enExplanation | Tieut (character: ㅌ; Korean: 티읕, romanized: tieut) is a consonant of the Korean hangul alphabet. It is pronounced aspirated, as [tʰ] at the beginning of a syllable and as [t] at the end of a syllable. For example: 토마토 tomato [tʰomatʰo] but 붙다 butta ("to stick to"), where it is pronounced with an unaspirated [t] sound. |

| enWikibooks | There are a few consonants that, when they are in the final position, are pronounced [t̚] (an unreleased t, like in the English word "atlas"). These characters are: ㄷ, ㅌ, ㅅ, ㅆ, ㅈ, and ㅊ:맛 ([mat̚], "flavor, taste")꽃 ([g̬ot̚], "flower")끝 ([g̬ɯt̚], "end")돋보기 ([tot̚pogi], "magnifying glass")맞다 ([mat̚da], "to correct")있다 ([it̚da], "to exist")However, if an ㅇ (ieung) follows a t-stop letter, then the normal sound is simply carried over:맛이 ([maɕi], as if it were spelled "마시")(Note: this is the case where a particle (e.g. -이, -에) is affixed to a character ending with 'ㅅ'.)If a character ending with 'ㅅ' is followed by another word that begins with 'ㅇ', the t-stop sound is carried over:첫 인상 ([처 딘상], "first impression") |
