Hangul, the Korean Writing System, and its Computational Treatment
نویسنده
چکیده
In this paper I will describe how the efficiency of the Hangul writing system can be transferred to its coding on computers. I will also review the encodings of Hangul by the precomposed Hangul code set of KSC 5601, a combinational Hangul code set, and ISO 2022, and their applications to the development of Hangul pro grams for sorting, editing, and processing Korean text. I then conclude with remarks on the merger efforts of the Unicode standard and ISO DIS 10646 on Hangul.

Neural Substrates of Hanja (Logogram) and Hangul (Phonogram) Character Readings by Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging
The two basic scripts of the Korean writing system, Hanja (the logography of the traditional Korean character) and Hangul (the more newer Korean alphabet), have been used together since the 14th century. While Hanja character has its own morphemic base, Hangul being purely phonemic without morphemic base. These two, therefore, have substantially different outcomes as a language as well as diffe...
متن کاملDissociative Disturbance in Hangul-Hanja Reading after a Left Posterior Occipital Lesion
Since the Korean language has two distinct writing systems, phonogram (Hangul) and ideogram (Hanja: Chinese characters), alexia can present with dissociative disturbances in reading between the two systems. A 74-year-old right-handed man presented with a prominent reading impairment in Hangul with agraphia of both Hangul and Hanja after a left posterior occipital- parietal lesion. He could not ...
متن کاملProblems and Approaches for Oriental Document Analysis
Machine understanding of hand,filled documents in China, Japan and Korea requires not only general solutions of document analysis but also ability to handle peculiarities of the Oriental languages. As expected, handwritten Chinese character recognition is the major task for it. In addition, Japanese Kana, Korean Hangul, Roman alphabet as well as numerals are targets of recognition. The main dif...
متن کاملHanja alexia with agraphia after left posterior inferior temporal lobe infarction: a case study.
Korean written language is composed of ideogram (Hanja) and phonogram (Hangul), as Japanese consists of Kanji (ideogram) and Kana (phonogram). Dissociation between ideogram and phonogram impairment after brain injury has been reported in Japanese, but few in Korean. We report a 64-yr-old right-handed man who showed alexia with agraphia in Hanja but preserved Hangul reading and writing after a l...
متن کاملThe Aesthetic Features of Korean Alphabetic System-hangul
The Korean alphabet, Hangul, is the unique alphabet which has a definite production process. All of the letters of Hangul can be defined in terms of production according to their aesthetic features. The main consonants were produced due to the articulation places in the mouth and the others were produced adding some other additional strokes on them. Vowels are based on the cosmic representation...
