    A lot of people have been telling me they don't get the Korean writing system so I put together this guide.

    Some notes:
    -Korean does not use Chinese characters (hanja) in common writing. I only see them used in dictionaries and newspapers, and only in cases where the definition needs to be clarified. In those cases they are almost always in parentheses after the proper han'geul.
    -All syllables MUST start with a lead consonant. All lead consonants MUST be followed by a vowel.
    -Stop consonants are referred to as "batchim" (Koreans do have stop consonants) and accent consonants are "ssang-(name of consonant)".
    -Korean does have spaces between words. They do however use particles; they are attached to the word before. (For instance, "나는 수희다", in which 는 and 다 are particles.)
    -Korean emoticons are awesome. ㅇㅈㅇ

    Lead consonants:

    Accent/"ssang" consonants:

    Stop consonants/"batchim":

    Vowels:

    Dipthongs:

    Minor nitpicks:

    So my name is 문수희, romanized "Moon Suhui" and pronounced "mun suhi". Hana's name is 강히나, "gang hana". Got it?

    Thanks for the guide.
    Personally, I pretty much understand the writing system, I just don't remember the symbols. xD Will bookmark for future reference, yes.

    Korean is actually considered the easiest of the three big East Asian languages, so I don't see why people complain! I'll be learning Chinese next semester, so if I hear someone complaining about Korean I will smack them.
