Listening Comprehension Tasks for Elementary Students KOREAN THROUGH ACTIVE
LISTENING, Book One makes learning Korean as well as listening to Korean easy and fun!
LISTENING, Book One is an intensive course in listening comprehension for beginner to
advanced beginner level students. It is designed for adults and secondary school students who
have just started Korean or who have studied some Korean.
LISTENING, Book One can be used as a supplement to a classroom text, or in a language
laboratory, and as a self-study book by students themselves.
LISTENING, Book One consists of fifty nine tasks based on everyday situations like greetings, ordering meals and shopping. 1n each task you will hear a dialogue or statement and do different
kinds of problem-solving, such as drawing lines, putting in various marks, filling in a blank and
labelling a picture.
LISTENING, Book One is intended to help you listen for meaning not listen to every single
word. You don’t have to understand every word to do a task but the overall message of what
someone is saying and the key information that you need to know. Just like in your mother
tongue you focus only on the parts of speech that are important for a speaker's or your own
purpose as a listener.
LISTENING, Book One consists of three cassette tapes. The recordings are of native Korean
radio actors and actresses with standard Korean accents speaking at normal speed. It may be
difficult to listen to Korean spoken at normal speed in the benning. However, remember that no
one speaks slowly in reallife. Even sympathetic speakers tend to go back to normal speed qckly
as the conversation go on. And there are even changes in pronunciation according to the speed.
Therefore , the best way is to get yourself familiar with normal speed Korean even though you
may find it difficult in the beginning.

All the tasks are selected and ordered in consideration of three main factors: the order of acquiring grammatical points , the complexity of the input and the value of immediate use. The first factor refers to the order that does not cause any confusion or delay to a learner. There are a few grammatical patterns that make it difficult for a learner to acquire other patterns if they are acquired first. The second factor means that each task should have a concentrated dose of comprehensible input. 1n the beginning tasks a student is only exposed to routine or formulaic expressions and the amount of redundant utterances alld cognitive work (categorizing , synthesizing , comparing , calculating , and inferring) is increased gradually over the tasks. As the third factor not only the academic aspects of learning but also the value of immediate use is considered in selecting situations and topics that provide useful expressions that can be used immediately outside classroom without much modification. And students' familiarity with situations and topics is also considered so that they can use their own background world knowledge and experience to establish expectations on what they are going to hear. However, any task can be selected by teachers for their own purposes or to use with their textbooks regardless of the order of the tasks presented in this book.
How to use Listening Comprehension Tasks for Elementary Students KOREAN THROUGH
ACTWE LISTENING, Book One 1. Make students familiar with the exponents and essential vocabulary by using your voice ,
and with the pictures used in each task.
2. Have some simple speaking activities by setting the situation similar to the situation of the
task to prepare students for the listening task. Encourage them to bring in their own
background knowledge and experience , and show them how to use that background
information in listening comprehension.
3. Make students understand what they are going to hear and what to listen for in order to do
the task successfully. For this read the directions aloud with them.
4. When you play the tape first , make sure that students do not write anything. Encourage
them to get the general idea of what is being said.
5. Play the tape as many times as you think necessary for students.
6. When they have done the task , play the tape pointing out the key information points.
7. If students have had difficulty doing a particular task , you may help them by indicating
what points of the tape to listen to.
8. After the listening task , have follow-up speaking activities similiar to the task in situations , or using the exponents and essential vocabulaη ofthe task.
9. If possible , make a dialogue or statement taped with or without modification of the original
using different voices. 1t gives students an opportunity to be exposed to various voices and , therefore , helps them to develop perceptuallistening ability in order to cope with various
voices in reallife.
LISTENING, Book One helps you to develop the listening skills that are irnportant in learning a
language but which you have little chance to develop owing to inadequate exposure to authentic
spoken Korean. The recordings are of native Koreans speaking at normal speed. You may find it
difficult in the beginning. However, it is the best way to overcome the differences between the
language you learn in a formal setting such as the classroom and the language in an informal
setting such as everyday conversation. You can do the tasks in any order but the early tasks are
easier than the later tasks.
How to use Elementary Task-Centered Listening Comprehension of KOREAN Book One
1. Make yourself familiar with the exponents and essential vocabulary of each task before
you do the task. 2. Try to read out the Korean expressions and vocabulary in the exponents and essential
vocabulary parts before you hear the tape. 3. Listen to the tape and find out if you read them properly. 4. Read the directions carefully and find out the situation or topic of the task. 5. Using your background knowledge of the situation or topic , and the exponents and
essential vocabulary, try to make expressions you can expect in that situation or topic. 6. Listen to the directions and find out how to do the task because the tasks have different
ways of being solved.
7. When there are pictures , it is very important to find out what each picture symbolizes. 8. When you listen to the tape first , make sure that you do not write anything. Get the general
idea of what you hear.
9. Listen to the tape as many times as you want. 10. Do not try to understand every single word. Just listen for the key information that you
need to do the task. 11. When you have done the task, listen to the tape again to check. 12. If you have had difficulty doing a pticular task, refer to the Key at the end of the book.
And listen again. 13. As far as possible, do not read the Transcript. Keep this as the last resort.
14. Whenever you have time, listen again in your car, in a bus or on the street using a small portable cassette recorder player.

Whn we are writing in English, we can think in terms of individualletters which we string together one after the other. But when using the Hangiíl alphabet, we have to think in terms of syllables. A
simple example is the word “Canada" - Ca-na-da. In Korean this would become: . Every Korean syllable occupies the same amount of space, no matter how many letters are in the syllable, and are written to fit into a square box.
C Ca-na-d k’ae na da
Ca-m h k’a me ra
Peter Pe-ter h n Pi tõ
Mary Ma-ry h me n
B B ba na na
Radio Ra-di-o F F ra di 0 l

APPENDIX: (HANGU
As in English, the Korean alphabet contains both consonants and vowels. To begin with, we will introduce one vowel and some simple consonants to show you how you can write Korean words.
l. Basic consonants
k/g (as in kid or game) I t/d (as in tiger or dog) p/b (as in pig or bed) z ch (as in charming or jungle) S (as in speech) m (as in mother) L n (as in noise) E r/l (as in rain or lily) h (as in high) * ng (as in ring)
* This sound only applies when 0 is the final consonant of a syllable. The same symbol can be used at the start of a syllable but in this case it has no sound. It acts as a dummy consonant for syllables that begin with a vowel.

With these basic consonants and the vowel, we can now create Korean words. Here are some more
examples:
(a)
na-ra country
pa-da ocean
sa-Ja lion
Ja ruler
ha-na one
In group (a), each word is made up of syllables containing an initial consonant and a vowel. This is a
basic rule - every written Korean syllable must contain an initial consonant and a vowel.
.l
} a-ma perhaps
o~ a-sl-a Asia
a-n-a ana
In group (b), there are syllables that begin with the dummy consonant “ " which has no sound.
When we speak in Korean we can pronounce syllables that do not have an initial consonant sound, but when we write there has to be a consonant at the beginning.
(c)
sa-rang
san
sa-ram
kang
chang-ma
In group (c), there are syllables which also have a final consonant. In these cases the syllables must
still fit into the square boxes even though there is an extra letter in the syllable. The space occupied
by the initial consonant and the vowel is shortened to allow room for the end consonant below.
3. Aspirated consonants k' (as in kite) E t' (as in tank) p' (as in punk) ch ’ (as in cheese)

APPENDIX: (HANGU
To understand what an aspirated consonant is, put your hand in front of your lips while saying kite.
You can feel a burst of air. The difference between (an aspirated consonant) and (a simple
consonant) is the amount of air you exhale when you make the sound. When you pronounce the
amount of air you expel is quite small. The difference between E and c , and , ;'Z. and À is
similar to that between and '.

4. Other pure vowels
In English we have five pure vowels, a,e,i,o,u and many combination vowels, eg. ea in the word
wheat, oi in the word noise, ou in house, etc. The word Canada illustrates a major problem in
learning to pronounce English. The same written form, in this case the letter a, can have more than
one pronunciation. But happily, in Korean each vowel has the same sound so once you've learnt
what the symbols are, you know how to pronounce the sounds and it never varies.
There are nine pure vowels:
l ”n l1
e u
(as in the 2nd and last - a of Canada) (as in the 1st - a of Canada) (as in the - 0 of computer) (as in the - e ofbed) (as in the - 00 ofbook) (as in the - ee of see) (as in wet) l
T
APPENDIX: (HANGU
There are another two pure vowels which are harder to pronounce because there are no direct
equivalents in English.
- ü (if you say - the cat sat on the mat - stressing cat and mat, the sound of the unstressed -
e in the word the is close to this vowel)
..L 0 (this is the hardest to get right. It is somewhere between the -0 in hope and the -or in
horde. If you practise saying the 0 and or sounds, you will see that both come from the front of the
mouth with your lips forming a circle. You will just have to listen to Koreans making this sound.)

It has been mentioned earlier that every Korean syllable occupies the same amount of space, no
matter how many characters are in the syllable, and are written to fit into a square box. How the
box is dividεd up depends first on the shape of the vowel.
When you look at the pure vowels, you will see that they have a predominant shape. Thus we can
think of them as being vertical, horizontal or combined.
Vertical Horizontal Combined

APPENDIX: (HANGU
The box is divided vertically in half, with the initial consonant on the left and the vowel on the right.
For vertical vowels with an end consonant:

The space for initial consonant and vowel is shortened to allow room for the end consonant below.
For horizontal vowels with no end consonant:

o T
The box is divided in half horizontally, with the initial consonant at the top and the vowel at the
bottom.

E
Again the end consonant is placed at the bottom. The space for the initial consonant and vowel has
to be squashed up.

'J.X tch (similar to it’ s easy)
λA ss (as in essence)
The sound of a tensed consonant such as is like trying to pronounce two ’ s at the same time. It
requires more effort and you need to tense the muscles around your vocal chords.
Examples:

tail
6. Pronouncing final consonants
All the consonants except for \:1:, 1:11:1 and ^^ can be final consonants but when we pronounce
individual syllables, there are only seven final consonant sounds. The final consonants that have
their own sound are:
APPE:NUIX: (HAN‘.u
When other letters are used as final consonants, they are pronounced using on of the above seven
end consonant sounds:
.l.L p( l:l)
^ t (c)
Examples:
7. Combined vowels
“" " 1 + a, 0, 0 , u, ae, e

m m
l

the word ne-on is a two syllable word, but if you say it quickly and run the -e and -0 together, to
make it a one syllable word .
.1L yo (similar to yor- of New York)
ìT yu (as in new)
yae (as in yam)
~I ye (asinyes)
u + 0 , e, 1
u + 0 , e, 1
üi (as in “can we" if you say them quicily)
Examples:
8. Sound shifts
You will have noticed that for some of the consonants, different romanised characters have been
given. We will illustrate why by looking at the pronunciation of end consonants : k/g, 1::: t/d and
l::l: p/b in individual syllables. When these consonants end a syllable, we use the k, t, P set of sounds
but the sound is cut off. The same thing can happen in English. Say the words pot, pop, pock very
quickly. You will find that you don't actually make the t, p, k sounds at the end of the words. Your
mouth goεs to a position to make the sounds but you don’t go through with it. When you do this, we
say that these end consonants are unreleased. While in English you can say these words more
clearly and εnunciate the end consonants, in Korean these t, k, p end consonants are always
unreleased when we say an individual syllable on its own.
But when we run syllables together, the sound can shift depending on what comes after them.
Again the same thing applies in English. Say the following sentences quickly, and rather lazily:
APPENDIX: (HANGÜ
sit on the chair
drop in some time.
When you say these quickly, you always sound the k, t, and p at the end of look, sit and drop. But
the sound can also slide, k to g, t to d and p to b. If you say these consonants in pairs, you will see
that the way you use your mouth to make them is very close. So when you talk quickly, it is very
easy to slide from one to the other. Another example is the phrase sit down. When you say it
quickly, it naturally becomes siddown. It takes more effort to make distinct t and d sounds and you
have to talk more slowly.
In general, people like to talk quickly, and for certain combinations of sounds, a slight modification
willlead to a flow of sounds that is smooth, with a minimum of effort for the speaker. That is the
general rule for why sound shifts occur. The Korean for “think" is
saeng -kak -hae-yo.
The romanisation is the pronunciation if you say it very slowly, one syllable at a time. Practise these
separately and then say them quickly, running them together. You will find that the sounds shift a bit and a smooth and natural pronunciation is saenggak'aeyo. For the same reason,

]
is not mõk-õ -yo but mõgõyo
is not mi-an-hap-ni-ta, but mianhamnida
is not han-kül but hangül
Youdon’t have to think of these sound shifts as a set of rules that you must learn. If you practise say
the syllables quickly, running them together, the reason for the shifts will be obvious.
