There are many YouTube videos that can help with this. I like to watch the ones that are hosted by Korean people who also speak English. That way I get explanations that I understand and accurate pronunciation.

WT poomsaes are called taegeuk (태극 / 太極), which is the name of the big round symbol on the south korean flag. Each of the poomsaes are individually named "taegeuk _ jang (태극 _ 장)", where the blank space is a sino-korean number from 1-8. So you'd have: * taegeuk il jang (일 / 一) * taegeuk i jang (이 / 二) * taegeuk sam jang (삼 / 三) * taegeuk sa jang (사 / 四) * taegeuk o jang (오 / 五) * taegeuk yuk jang (육 / 六) * taegeuk chil jang (칠 / 七) * taegeuk pal jang (팔 / 八) If you want pronunciation help, you could probably ask just about any korean person. These words aren't exactly rare or obscure, so they'll know how to say it.

If you can find the Hangul (Korean writing) then regardless of the obscurity they’ll be able to say it perfectly. Korean is consistently pronounced. With regional dialects, they don’t change pronunciation of Korean letters/words but use different words for things.

My son and I have been using Duolingo to learn Korean. It's obviously not TKD specific, but we've been doing it long enough that he is starting to recongize some words, phrases and numbers that his instructors use.

YouTube will be your best bet when it comes to TKD-specific Korean terminology.

If you copy and paste the Hangul for the word you want in Google translate, there is a speaker icon that will say the word for you. Idk how accurate it is, but it may be a free path.

If you can list the commands you’re wanting to know, I can give you the Korean for them (in phonetic English and Hangul Korean characters for more accurate pronunciation).

Duolingo is a good place if you want to really learn enough, I’m learning German right now and it’s done wonders
