자주 하는 실수

Beginners often split digraphs. Remember they represent one unique sound.

Wrong: Pronouncing 'sz' as 's' and 'z'.
정답: Pronounce 'sz' as an English 's'.

In Hungarian, vowel length changes the word meaning. Don't skip the extra length.

Wrong: Ignoring the length of 'a' vs 'á'.
정답: Treat 'á' as a distinct, longer sound.

The trigraph is a single phonetic unit. Don't rush or break it apart.

Wrong: Saying 'dzs' as three separate sounds.
정답: Say 'dzs' as one unified sound like 'j' in 'jam'.
