Letters are always formed beginning with a vowels.

A letter must have at least one consonant and one vowel

A vowel cannot be written by itself and must be preceded by a consonant when it is written.

When constructing letter, always move from right to left and top to bottom.

When we have three Hangul letters. These are simply formed consonant plus vowel plus consonant.

or the following vertical vowels such as ‘ㅏㅑㅓㅕㅣㅔㅐㅖㅒ’ these are located on the Right hand side of the consonant.

For the following horizontal vowels such as ‘ㅗㅛㅜㅠㅡ’ these are located on bottom of the consonants.

When you form a letter, a second consonant need to be placed at the right side. Ex) 리ㄱ

Whenㅇ falls at the end of a letter,

it makes an ‘ng’ sound as in ‘sing’.
