ABOUT THE KOREAN LANGUAGE
-
- The Korean language is the official language of people in South and North Korea. It is spoken by 77 million people worldwide.
- There are two standard varieties of Korean: the Seoul dialect in South Korea and the Phyong’yang dialect in North Korea.
- Korean has numerous small local dialects. The South Korean regional dialects are Chungchong, Cholla, Kyonsang, and Cheju Island. The North Korean regional dialects are Hwanghae, Hamkyong, and Pyongan.
LINGUISTIC FEATURES
-
- The Korean writing system is called Hangul and consists of 14 consonants and 10 vowels. The consonants are formed with angled or curved lines while the vowels are created from horizontal or vertical straight lines.
- Most of the Korean vocabulary is made up of native Korean words. However, a great amount of the vocabulary has either been borrowed from written Chinese or coined in Korea or Japan using Chinese characters.
- Once translated from English to Korean, text typically reduces in volume by up to 15%.
