Preface

Welcome to the Korean
English Phonetic Dictionary (Travel Companion Edition). This is meant to be a starting point for newbie's to the Korean language. Since most people new to Korea are not familiar with the language at all, and not yet ready to attempt reading or writing the actual Korean language, I have not included any introduction or comparison between the actual Korean characters and the English equivalents (Romanization). I use the "Revised Romanization of Korean (2000)" for the correct spelling of the English version of the Korean word. I then show a phonetic spelling of the word to help with the correct pronunciation of it. Various tables and charts are included, as well as word puzzles and games to help with memory retention of the Korean words and to help with recognition and comprehension of the Romanized spelling of the words. Also included is a Korean / English version of the dictionary for looking up the English version of the Korean words. Keep in mind that the sounds we are used to making in our language are different in the Korean language. This dictionary will give you a starting point to the Korean words, but in order to perfect the actual pronunciation, you should try to practice the words with Koreans or others that have spent some time in Korea, and are familiar and comfortable with the language. Enjoy!

The Korean Romanized Alphabet and Phonetic Equivalents Most double consonants sound the same as their simple counterparts with a slightly heavier emphasis. Romanized Spelling

WORD GAMES & PUZZLES

The following puzzles are included for your enjoyment and hopefully to help with memory retention of the Korean words. I utilize both the phonetic spelling and the Romanized spelling of the Korean words in the various puzzles and games. The use of the Romanized spelling is to help you learn and recognize the Romanized spelling of Korean words as you come across them. I hope you get as much pleasure and benefit out of this dictionary and these puzzles, as I have in creating them. D. L. Bangerter

Puzzle / Game Types and Instructions Crossword puzzles – There are three types of crossword puzzles, one with clues of Korean words spelled phonetically in which you solve for the English word, (we also include tips in English) and the other with clues in English, in which you solve for the Romanized spelling of the Korean word, and the third, a combination of the two. Each puzzle or game is based on one letter of the alphabet, or of one of the quickie reference lists located in the front of the dictionary. Word match – There are two types of word match games. One where you draw lines from the English word to the Korean word and the other where you renumber the Korean word list. These games utilize the phonetic spelling of the Korean word. Circle Word Game – In these games you simply circle the Korean word that matches the English word, or vise versa. The Korean words in these puzzles utilize the Romanized spelling.
