Batchim rules
There are 7 key batchim rules that depend on the consonants used. Some characters like ใฑ, ใ , and ใฒ share the same rule as you can guess because they are very similar consonants.
ใ = ใ
ใฑ, ใ , ใฒ, ใณ, ใบ = ใฑ
ใท, ใ , ใ , ใ , ใ , ใ , ใ = ใท
ใ , ใป = ใ
ใ , ใ , ใ , ใฟ = ใ
ใน, ใผ, ใพ, ใ = ใน
ใด, ใต, ใถ = ใด
Iโll lay it out like this:
WORD โ> PRONOUNCIATION : ROMANIZED
1. Rules for ใ
Starting off with ใ because itโs important to batchim rules overall. Once you learn how to read hangul you learn ใ is either an empty space when used first (like ์๋) or an โngโ sound at the very end (like ์ฌ๋).
The โngโ sound is the ใ characters batchim, it never changes. BUT thereโs more- if ใ begins the next syllable in a word the batchim will change:
์์ด โ> ์ด์จ : isseo
์๋ค โ> ์ป๋ค : et-da
For the first one the bottom consonant ใ takes over the space of ใ for pronunciation making it sound more like ์ด์จ. ์๋ค above follows the normal batchim rules and the ใ takes on a ใท sound.
2. ใฑ, ใ , ใฒ, ใณ, ใบ = ใฑ
This rule affects consonants including ใฑ or his relatives and simply makes anything a ใฑ sound no matter how hard the character would be on its own. Even ใณ which is combo k and s becomes just k sound.
ํ๊ตญ์ด โ> ํ๊ตฌ๊ฑฐ : hangugeo
์ฑ ์ โ> ์ฑ๊ทผ : chekgun
3. ใท, ใ , ใ , ใ , ใ , ใ , ใ = ใท
This affects a bunch of consonants so itโs important to remember.
๊ฝ โ> ๊ผณ : ggot
์ข๋ค โ> ์กฐํ : jota
Thereโs a special rule about ใท and ใ ending before a ใ though. Youโve probably heard it with ๊ฐ์ด; instead of becoming ๊ฐํฐ the ใ changes to ใ making it ๊ฐ์น. ย ใท changes to ใ as well.
๊ฐ์ด โ> ๊ฐ์น: kachi
4. ใ , ใป = ใ
๋ชธ์ด โ> ๋ชจ๋ฏธ : momi
5. ใ , ใ , ใ , ใฟ = ใ
์๋ค โ> ์ ๋ฐ : ob-da
์์ด์ โ> ์ ์์ : ob-seoyo
Now ใ has some special rules for itself, you probably knows ๊ฐ์ฌํฉ๋๋ค but itโs not pronounced kamsahaBnida itโs more like kamsamnida
ใ starting a word โ use a softer b sound: ๋ฐ๋๋
ใ in the middle โ ย it creates a b sound: ์ผ๋ฒ
ใ at the bottom โ can have m sound depending on what follows like in ๊ฐ์ฌํฉ๋๋ค
A trick to think of is try saying ๊ฐ์ฌํฉ๋๋ค 20x fast. Maybe originally the word was pronounced fully but people get lazy, slur their words, etc and pronunciation goes towards whatโs easiest.
6. ใน, ใผ, ใพ, ใ = ใน
๋ณ์ด โ> ๋ฒผ๋ฆฌ : byeo-re
ํฅ์ โ> ํ ํผ : halteun
7. ใด, ใต, ใถ = ใด
์๋ค โ> ์๋ค: anta
๋์ด โ> ๋๋ : doni

Hiii I was wondering if you can do a lot of sentences of how ์ด/๊ฐ and ๋/์ are different. Maybe some include the ์/๋ฅผ too. And also some that have both ๋/์ and ์ด/๊ฐ โบ๏ธโบ๏ธ
anon asked: I see a lot of posts on Tumblr about ์ด/๊ฐ but they just leave me more confused. Can you help? thanks
Sentences to Showcase the Usage of ์ด/๊ฐ and ์/๋: [+what are they?]
Please go here for more context on how/when to use them. This post will be kinda long, so Iโll put a TLDR at the top.
TLDR; if the main noun is an agent then use, ์/๋ or if the main noun is an experiencer, then use ์ด/๊ฐ
Now, what the hell is an agent or an experiencer. A good way to figure this out is to ask yourself, โis the entity doing the action or undergoing the event?โ ์/๋ are general particles (commonly used for the agent as they are the ones doing or causing the action), whereas ์ด/๊ฐ are particles used to emphasize (commonly used for the experiencer as they are in contact with the event; I will explain more later in the blog). Both are nominativeโwhich is what makes the argument of โsubjectโ and โtopicโ extremely confusing and meaningless because they donโt accurately identify the nounโs role in the sentence.
I am fortunate enough to have studied thematic roles and syntax in depth during my time in linguistics, however, I understand that a lot of my followers havenโt! So, I will give you a visual:
So again, ask yourself, โwho/what is doing/causing the action?โ or โwho/what is undergoing the event?โ Sometimes, it is also easy to look at the verb or adjective and make a judgement there considering it's common** for ์ด/๊ฐ to go with adjectives and common for ์/๋ to go with verbs. Another way to think about it: if you need to place emphasis on the agent, then you can use ์ด/๊ฐ.
** just because it's common, it does not mean it's a rule (however, it is a good tip)
Below is an example of why the above statement is not a rule.
์ด๋ค [to be] is special because it is a copula. A copula is a verb that joins/links the main noun and it's complement. We have many copulas in English (BE, feel, smell, look, become--to name a few). Korean has three: ์ด๋ค, ์๋๋ค, and ๋๋ค.
Letโs try to place it in a sentence where both ์/๋ and ์ด/๊ฐ occur in contrast:
๋งค์ผ ์ ๋ฐ๋ค์ ์ ์ด์ผ ํ๋๋ฐ ์ค๋์ ์ด ์ ๋ฐ์ด ์ ์ ์ผ๋ฉด ์ ๋ผ์
In the sentence above ^^, the dependent clause [๋งค์ผ ์ ๋ฐ๋ค์ ์ ์ด์ผ ํ๋๋ฐ] gives background information for the main clause [์ค๋์ ์ด ์ ๋ฐ์ด ์ ์ ์ผ๋ฉด ์ ๋ผ์]. โGenerally,โ the speaker says, โeveryday I have to wear shoes, but I must wear these shoes [specifically] today.โ
The sentence shows that there is something emphasized about the shoes; โthese shoes must undergo being worn by meโ. Whatever the reason may be, the speaker intentionally highlighted the shoes in the second clause as the ones that they must wear that day.
Summary so far:
1) If the main noun is doing the action, use ์/๋
2) If the main noun is undergoing the action, use ์ด/๊ฐ
3) If you want to emphasize the main noun, use ์ด/๊ฐ
Hopefully, youโre still following me. Letโs look at other examples:
์ค๋์ ๋ ์จ๊ฐ ์ข์์ - today, the weather is goodย
๊ทธ ์ด์ดํฐ์ ์ ๊ฒ ์๋์์ [๊ฒ = ๊ฒ+์ด] - Those earphones arenโt mine
์๋ก์ด ์ ์๋์ด ์ฌ์์์ - the new teacher is a woman
์ ์๋์ ํ๊ตญ ๋ถ์ด ์๋์์ - the teacher is not Korean
์ ์ด๋ฆ์ ์ง์ฐ์ด ์๋๊ณ ํฌ์ฃผ์์ - My name is Heeju, not Jiyeon
๋น๋น๋ฐฅ ๋ง๊ณ ๋ค๋ฅธ ํ์์ด ์์ด์? - Other than bibimbap, do you have other Korean food?
๊ทธ ๋จ์๋ ์บ๋๋ค์ ๊ฐ ๋ ๋ฏธํผ์ด ์๋ ๊ฑฐ ๊ฐ์์ - I donโt think that man will be single if/when he travels to Canada
Hereโs the worst part; sometimes, thereโs no fkn difference between the meanings.ย Which also makes it confusing. So, try to stick to the rules in the post linked and the patterns from this post.ย
1. Use ์ด/๊ฐ after an object when youโre describing an agentโs feelings or state of mindย
EX. ์กด์ ์ฑ ์ ์ฝ๋ ๊ฒ ์ข์์; ์กด์ ์ฑ ์ด ์ข์์ = John likes (reading) books
2. Use ์ด/๊ฐ after the noun that precedes (goes before) a copula
EX. ์กด์ ํ๊ตญ์ ์จ ์ง 3๋ ์ด ๋์์ด์ = John has been in Korea for 3 years
3. Adjectives and Intransitive verbs (no object), can take on ์ด/๊ฐ if you want to emphasize the main noun
EX. ๋ด์ผ์ ๋ ์จ๊ฐ ๋ฐ๋์ด ๋ถ ๊ฑฐ ๊ฐ์์ = It seems like itโs going to be windy tomorrow
4. Transitive verbs (takes an object), usually use ์ด/๊ฐ for the first noun and ์/๋ฅผ for the object
EX. ์กด์ด ์ด๋ฅผ ๋ฆ๋ ์ค์ด์์ = John is [in the middle] of brushing his teeth
Okay! I really hope this helped! If thereโs still any confusion, please donโt hesitate to send me a message to ask for clarification or more examples! ์ด/๊ฐ and ์/๋ are honestly some of the hardest for English speakers learning Korean to grasp because we donโt really have particles like this that distinguish nouns in English. Though, with this, I hope you can get better at it!
Happy Learning :)ย

Easiest Korean Particles
N์ฒ๋ผ, N๊ฐ์ด
N๋ง๋ค
N์ฏค
N์ด๋
N์ฒ๋ผ, N๊ฐ์ด = Like [Noun]
Usage: Kind of like a โsimileโ in English and it corresponds to โlikeโ or โasโ. When you want to express that an action appears the same or similar to the noun you attach ์ฒ๋ผ or ๊ฐ์ด to.
Note: ์ฒ๋ผ/๊ฐ์ด are often used metaphorically to compare characteristics by comparing them to other things.
Examples:
๊ทธ ๋จ์๋ ๋ง์ฒ๋ผ ๋นจ๋ฆฌ ๋ฌ๋ ค์. He runs as fast as a horse.
์ง๋ฏผ ์จ๋ ์ฒ์ฌ๊ฐ์ด ๋ ธ๋ํด์. Jimin sings like an angel
๊ทธ๋ ์ ๋จธ๋ฆฌ๋ ์์ด๋์ฒ๋ผ ์๋ป ๋ณด์ฌ์.
Her hair looks as pretty as an idol.
N๋ง๋ค = Every [Noun]
Usage: This is attached to nouns that express a time - time nouns. To indicate the repetition of the same/similar situation or behavior over a set period of time. It can be translated as โeveryโ, โeachโ, โonce everyโ. Itโs added directly next to the time noun being described.
Examples:
์ฃผ๋ง๋ง๋ค ์ฌํ์ ๊ฐ์. I go on a trip every weekend.
๊ธ์์ผ๋ง๋ค ์น๊ตฌ๋ฅผ ๋ง๋๊ณ ์ธ์์ ํด์. Every Friday I meet my friends and (we) go out to eat.
์ฐ๋ฆฌ ์ง์๋ ๋ฐฉ๋ง๋ค ํฐ๋น๊ฐ ์์ด์. Thereโs a tv in every room in (our)my house.
Note: It can also be added to non time nouns - regular nouns.
Ex: ํ์๋ง๋ค ๋ฌ๋ผ์. Each student is different.
No need to add it to words that have ๋งค in them as it indicates โevery ___โ
๋งค์ผ (everyday) โ ๋งค์ผ๋ง๋ค (X)
๋ (day) โ ๋ ๋ง๋ค (everyday)
N์ฏค = About [Noun]
Usage: Itโs added to nouns that represent numbers, times, and quantities. It indicates an approximation - โaboutโ or โaroundโ.
Examples:
๋ย ์ด๋ค์ฏย ์ดย ์ฏคย ๋์ดย ๋ณด์ฌ์. You look about 15 years old.
ํ์์ฏค ์ด๋์? ์์ ์ด ์ด๋์ ์ค์ญ๋ถ์ ๋๋์.
Howโs around 1 oโclock? My class ends at 12:50.
์ฐ๋ฆฌ๋ ์ผ๋ ์ฏค์ ์ค๊ตญ์์ ์ค๊ตญ์ด๋ฅผ ๊ณต๋ถํ ๊ฑฐ์์. We will study Chinese In China for around a year.
Extra Notes:
When referring to approximate prices, โNoun์ฏค ํ๋คโ is used more often than just โNoun์ฏค์ด๋คโ.
Example:
์ฌ๊ณผ๋ ์ธ๊ฐ์ ์ด์ฒ์์ฏค ํด์.
Apples cost about 2000 won for 3.
N์ด๋ = Noun Or Noun
Usage: This actually has 3 usages, but we will focus on the main one which means โorโ. It can only be attached to nouns. One of the two or more listed nouns will be chosen. (๊ฑฐ๋ means the exact same, but is attached to verbs instead)
Form:
Consonant - ์ด๋
Vowel - ๋
Examples:
๋ชฉ์ด ๋ง๋ผ์. ๋ฌผ์ด๋ ์ฐจ๋ฅผ ๋ง์๊ณ ์ถ์ด์. Iโm thirsty. I want to drink water or tea.
๊ตฌ๋๋ ๊ฐ๋ฐฉ์ ์ด ๊ฑฐ์์. Iโll buy some shoes or a bag.
ํ ์์ผ์๋ ์ผ์์ผ์ ์ด๋ํด์. I exercise on Saturday or Sunday. (You can attach ๋ to ์ or leave ์ out and just use ์ด๋)
PRACTICE SECTION:
Something to keep in mind is that when you are using these particles you do not need to also attach the subject or object particles to them!
