변화하다

Korean

Etymology

From 변화 (變化, byeonhwa, “change”) and the native Korean verb 하다 (hada, “to do”).

Pronunciation

• (SK Standard/Seoul) IPA^(key): [ˈpjɘ(ː)nβwa̠ɦa̠da̠]
• Phonetic hangul: [변(ː)화하다]
  • Though still prescribed in Standard Korean, most speakers in both Koreas no longer distinguish vowel length.
