    Thanks Michael – thinking of it as ‘ng’ as in sing helps a lot. I want to pronounce everything as well as possible, even if I find it harder than just saying everything with a sharp ‘g’. Does the ‘ng’ pattern only apply to ‘ga’, or does it apply to the whole ‘ga’ column? Like ‘nge’, ‘ngu’ etc.? So far I’ve only heard ‘ga’ pronounced in this way, but I really havent listened to much vocab so far.

    Also, which core 6000 flashcards do you use? Is it an anki deck, or something introduced in textfugu or wanikani?

    Thanks for your help guys! I’ve been looking up more about this since posting, and it seems as though the ‘ng’ sound is traditional and more ‘proper’ and ‘regal’, but more and more younger people just say ‘g’ instead. Which sounds good to me – I find the ng sound so difficult to pronounce.
