A rough reading aid, not exact pronunciation. Hyphens separate syllables. Listen first, then try with hints hidden. “eu” is said with unrounded lips; “uh” only approximates ㅓ. Doubled consonants are tense, not extra syllables. Do not add a vowel after a final consonant.
Read, compare and repeat
Practice Korean final stop sounds in 국, 밥 and 옷. Learn why different written final consonants can share the same ending sound when a word is said alone.
Pronunciation guides are approximate. Focus on the Korean audio as you learn.

Keep the final closure brief.
밥, 집
Finish with the lips together.

The second example is pronounced [오시]; the following vowel matters.
Try it for yourself
Practice the words alone first. Avoid adding “keu,” “teu” or “peu” after the final consonant. This lesson introduces simple finals; it does not cover every double-final spelling or sound change.
Say it from the meaning
Say each phrase aloud before revealing it. This practice does not change your score.
Make yourself heard.
Listen once. Record yourself saying the phrase, then listen back.
국, 책, 밥, 집, 옷
Sound hintgook, chehk, bahp, jeep, oht
