Introduction
Korean is the official language of both North and South Korea. It’s also spoken widely in neighboring Yanbian, China. Worldwide, Korean is spoken by some 78 million people. Korean has several dialects, of which two are standard: Seoul, spoken in South Korea, and P'yongyang, spoken in North Korea. In addition, there are approximately seven regional dialects. All dialects, except that spoken on the Jeju Island, are mutually intelligible. This course teaches the Seoul dialect of South Korea.
the korean alphabet
The Korean script, called Hangul, was invented in 1443 under the reign of King Sejong. Until then, Chinese characters were used by the upper classes, and Idu letters, a kind of Chinese-based Korean character system, by the populace. The system created by King Sejong and his scholars is still in use today.
The Korean alphabet is phonetic. It consists of ten vowels, eleven vowel combinations, fourteen consonants, and five double consonants. As in English, the letters of the Hangul alphabet represent individual sounds. Letters that have similar sounds also have similar shapes, making them easier to learn.

the korean syllable
The basic unit of written Korean is the syllable. All Korean words can be viewed as blocks of syllables. Each syllable block is like a square of a fixed size. There are two basic syllable blocks: consonant-vowel, and consonant-vowel-consonant. The way letters are arranged in a syllable block depends upon the vowel in the syllable. Vowels can be seen as being horizonal, vertical, or a combination of both. Korean syllable blocks follow four basic rules. Understanding these rules makes it easier to recognize letters in a syllable, and thereby to read Korean. Here are the rules:

korean
consonant - Vowel syllables
Rule 1: There are nine “vertical vowels” that stand upright. They are:
ㅏ ㅑ ㅓ ㅕ ㅣ ㅐ ㅒ ㅔ ㅖ
A vertical vowel is written to the right of the consonant.
consonant vowel
Example: ㄴ(n) + ㅏ(a) = 나 (na)
Rule 2: There are five “horizontal vowels.” They are: ㅗ ㅛ ㅜ ㅠ ㅡ
Horizontal vowels are written below the consonant.
ConsonantVowel
Example: ㅎ(h)+ㅗ(o)=호
the korean syllable (continued)

korean
Rule 3: There are seven “combination vowels” that have characteristics of both the horizontal and vertical vowels. They are:
ㅚ ㅟ ㅘ ㅝ ㅙ ㅞ ㅢ
With these vowels, the initial consonant is written in the upper left-hand corner of the imaginary block. The vowel then appears both to the right and below.
Example: ㅇ(silent) + ㅘ(wa) = 와
consonant – Vowel – consonant syllables
Rule 4: With three-character syllables, the arrangement of the initial consonant and vowel is the same as just shown. The final consonant is simply placed below or on the bottom. See the illustrations on the next page:

(b) Horizontal vowels:

Example: ㅅ(s) + ㅗ(o) + ㄴ(n) = 손 (son)
(c) Combination vowels:

At first, “decoding” these blocks will take some practice. Therefore, we recommend that you take the Reading Lessons at your own pace, repeating each until you feel comfortable proceeding to the next. With a little effort, however, you will be pleasantly surprised at how quickly you are reading Korean -- and at how much fun it can be!
