Spelling Practice Methods
I asked this in the discussion section, but didn't get much response, so I'm trying here.
How do you work on spelling in your target language? I keep switching letters, especially ones like ㅗ and ㅜ.Specifically, I’m looking for help from people studying Korean. I’m wondering what techniques or methods you use to study spelling? Both practicing spelling in general and how you remember the actual spelling for letters that sound very similar/the same?

Your question is not very specific, and I’m even not studying Korean, but aren’t those two letters pronounced differently? Korean spelling, while not 100% “perfect”, is a lot more consistent than English spelling, so it might be best to prioritize pronunciation. Or is the problem with remembering which letter has which sound? As a mnemonic, perhaps you could consider that ㅜ looks a little like our T and sounds like /u/. In our alphabet, T and U are together in alphabetical order. Let me know if this helped at all.

Hello,
I create flashcards with my voice recording for each lesson for my students on Quizlet. They told me it is very helpful to review the words or expressions they learn in my class including spelling practice.
You can download the app for free of charge. It is easy and convenient to use. Hope my suggestion helps and please follow me at koreanclass.canada on Instagram!

에 used to be short and 애 long (from what I've come to understand), but nowadays there's no difference.

Is this a question about spelling or about pronunciation? You keep using "spelling" but from what you write, you seem to be asking about pronunciation.
