How to read the Hangul

beginning비기닝 the^ð더 Christ크^r라이스트 salvation샐^v베이션

Bold, larger (ˈ) = say it strong and a little longer — the stressed syllable.
Faint = weak and short (a reduced vowel). Don't give every syllable equal weight.
Tiny 으 · 트 · 스 = barely voiced. English has no vowel there — stop on the consonant.
Whole word faint (the, of, and, to…) = light and quick in a sentence; stress the content words.
Small f v θ ð r = sounds Korean doesn't have — f: upper teeth on the lower lip; v: the same, voiced; θ/ð: tongue tip between the teeth; r: tongue curled back, touching nothing.
