The Revised Romanization of Korean (가 ga, 거 geo), the official system.
There is no sound.
The page uses the Korean voice installed on your device. Without one, there may be no sound.
Why this consonant order?
It is the dictionary order. Tense consonants (ㄲ and so on) are grouped separately.
Only seven final sounds?
Yes. Final letters vary, but at the end of a syllable they are pronounced as ㄱ, ㄴ, ㄷ, ㄹ, ㅁ, ㅂ or ㅇ.
How should I start learning?
Learn the basic consonants and vowels first, then tense consonants and complex vowels, then final consonants.
