It is hard to accurately represent how doenjang jjigae should be pronounced with the English alphabet. The word consists of four syllables — doen-jang-jji-gae — which are pronounced in the manner spoken in Latin like "a e i o u." "oe" represents "o" and "e" said simultaneously to make "we." "jj" is that equivalent to "bb" as "f" and "dd" as "th." "ae" is Latin "e."
