"A skyscraper of Korea"

Translation: 한국의 마천루

[dson0803]

Okay so im pretty sure 마천루 isnt incorrect,, but as far as im concerned, its more of an idiomatic expression-- like i have literally never heard any actual korean person say that, they all say 고층건물 or 초고층건물

[CalebJones16]

Pronunciation-wise, the app said (마철루). I thought I remember learning that it would be pronounced (마천누). Which is it?

[Staszek456]

its pronounced correctly. nl --> ll

[dibidibidis_]

It's pronounced /마철루/.
ㄴ+ㄹ (or ㄹ+ㄴ) in the 받침 turns into double ㄹ.

As for the double ㄴ the 받침 combinations are:
ㄷ + ㄴ
ㅌ + ㄴ
ㅈ + ㄴ
ㅊ + ㄴ
ㅅ + ㄴ
ㅆ + ㄴ
All of the above become double ㄴ when pronounced.

However there are times when ㄹ turns into ㄴ, so that's what you might have heard about?
For example combinations where we have ㅇ+ㄹ in the 받침 the ㄹ is pronounced as ㄴ. For example the word 장래 (meaning: future) is pronounced /장내/
