PREFACE
This book was designed as a guide for those who wish to
learn written Korean. It presents for the first time in English
the information necessary to read and write hangiil, the
Korean alphabet, and the 1,800 Chinese characters taught
in Korean schools. A Guide to Korean Characters contains
simplified charts explaining hang5l and models showing
exactly how to write each of the 1,800 Basic Characters. Sam-
ple vocabulary words, selected on the basis of frequency of
use, are included for each character. This handbook also
functions as a character dictionary since its entries are ar-
ranged in stroke-count order and it contains both a radical
and a phonetic index.
I am very grateful to those who have helped in the prep-
aration of A Guide to Korean Characters. Mr. Cho PyTing-ha
was indefatiguable, and the writing models in the text are
examples of his graceful calligraphy. Dr. Ch6n Y6ng-ch'd
and Mr. Yi Pang-h5n kindly read the entire manuscript and
made many useful suggestions. I am indebted to Mr. Chu
Shin-wgn, Chief Editor at Hollyrn Corporation: Publishers, for
his patient guidance. I alone, of course, am responsible for
errors.

INTRODUCTION
THE KOREAN WRITING SYSTEM
Korean is a member of the Altaic family of languages and
is very similar to Japanese. It has been spoken on the Korean
peninsula for more than 2,000 years but has enjoyed an in-
digenous writing system since only the fifteenth century.
Chinese exerted an early influence on Korean, and loan words
from the Chinese now comprise about sixty percent of the
Korean vocabulary.
Chinese is essentially uninflected, while Korean is poly-
synthetic. So different, in fact, are the two languages that
Chinese and English have more in common than do Chinese
and Korean. Ancient Koreans found Chinese ideographs
unsuited to phonetically represent their richly inflected lan-
guage, so they adopted written Chinese itself. Literate
Koreans wrote one language, classical Chinese, and spoke
another, Korean, until the dawn of the twentieth century, a
period in excess of 1,500 years.
In 1440, King Sejong of the Yi Dynasty set a group of
scholars to the task of inventing a means of writing the Ko-
rean language. The resulting phonetic alphabet was prom-
ulgated in 1446 but did not enjoy widespread use. Hangiil, as
it is now called, is perhaps the most scientific alphabet in
general use in the world.
In 1972, the Ministry of Education of the Republic of Korea
directed that 1,800 Sino-Korean characters, hanja, be taught
in all middle and high schools in the nation. These are com-
monly called the Basic Characters, and each is treated in this
book. Modern Korean is written in a mixed script in which
hanja is used for Chinese loan words and hangiil for purely
Korean items.
The Korean alphabet is so simple that its sixteen totally
11
INTRODUCTION
distinct letters can be learned in minutes with the aid of the
hangiil-in-a-hurry charts at the inside front cover of this book.
Use these charts to decode hangal appearing in the book
and elsewhere until it becomes entirely familiar to you. The
charts at the inside back cover illustrate how to write each
hangGI letter and how to combine the letters into sylla-
bles.
Korean consonants are pronounced much as they are in
English, though they annoyingly assume different shades of
sound when they appear as initials, medials, or finals. The five
stressed consonants are pronounced with greatest possible
stress but with no expulsion of air. For example, "tt" ( r-c ) is
pronounced akin to the d of don't inUDon't do that!'' The
aspirated consonants are pronounced with a heavy expulsion
of air. The "k' "( 3 ) is similar, for example, to the k of kill
in ill that rattlesnake!" Vowels are pronounced essentially
as noted on the inside front cover. Access to a native speaker
is recommended for refined pronunciation.
HISTORY OF CHINESE CHARACI'ERS
1n.ancient China, pieces of bone and shell were incised with
characters and then heated. The resulting cracks among the
characters were used by oracles to foretell the future. Thou-
sands of such "oracle bones" have been unearthed. The char-
acters on them, the oldest extant, date from about 1,400 B.C.
Virtually all principles for the formation of ideographs are
evident on the oracle bones, suggesting a long period of de-
velopment prior to 1,400 B.C. After that time, characters
underwent a continuing evolution of form that ended about
2,000 years ago with the development of the "square char-
acters" still used today. The following chart traces four char-
acters through this evolution and illustrates character styles
which a modern reader is likely to encounter. Dates are very
approximate.
lNTRODUcrION
Forms of Chinese Characters
THE SIX CATEGORIES OF CHINESE CHARACTERS
Characters traditionally have been classified into Six Cate-
gories according to how they were originally fabricated or how
they later accrued meaning. An understanding of these cate-
gories can bring a sense of order to the beginning reader who
is likely to be bewildered by a forest of seemingly unrelated
graphs. Moreover, the characteristics of the different types of
hanja suggest varying learning strategies for their mastery.
The Sung Dynasty scholar, Ch6ng Ch'iao, apportioned 24,235
characters to the Six Categories, and his results provide an
indication of the relative size of each category. (Kwtin, page
2. See Bibliography.)
Category One: Simple Pictographs
Simple Pictographs were the first type of character
fabricated by the ancient Chinese. They picture objects, such
as tree,*. The trunk, branches and roots of a tree can be seen
even in this modern form of the character. Another Simple
Pictograph is (sun). This stylized character was originally
round, and the line in its center represented rays of sunshine.
Only 608 of the characters classified by Cheng Ch'iao are
Simple Pictographs, but they are important because many of
them are the building blocks from which other hanja are made.
A Simple Pictograph is easily learned by associating its
shape and meaning.
Category Two: Simple Diagrams
Simple Diagrams were among the earliest characters made
and depict relationships for which no picture can readily be
drawn. Two common examples are I: (up) and (down). The
diagrammatic nature of this pair is readily apparent. Simple
Diagrams are best learned by associating shape and meaning.
Ch$ng Ch'iao allotted 107 of his characters to this category.
Category Three: Simple Compounds
A subsequent development in the history of characters, Sim-
ple Compounds are truly ideographic. They were made from
INTRODUCIlON
two or more existing characters whose combined meanings
provide a clue to the denotation of the compound. The Simple
Compound resulting from the union of R (sun) and * (tree)
is R. The new character is pronounced 3- (tong), and signifies
''east," taking its meaning from the "sun" rising from behind
a "tree" in the "east." A Simple compound is best learned
by relating its meaning to that of its constituent elements. Of
the graphs classified by Ch2ng Ch'iao, 740 were Simple
Compounds.
Category Four: Phonetic Compounds
About ninety percent of the characters of Ch2ng Ch'iao,
21,811 hanja, are Phonetic Compounds. These graphs can
be characterized as semi-ideographic and semi-phonetic since
each is composed of a semantic element which furnishes a hint
to the general meaning of the compound and a phonetic
element which provides a direct clue to its pronunciation.
The phonetic clue in the vast majority of Sino-Korean char-
acters is a significant potential mnemonic aid but is widely
regarded as of limited value. Chinese lexicography obscures
the phonetic relationships among characters, and some
Phonetic Compounds which share an identical phonetic ele-
ment have differing readings either because they were not
originally homophonous or because their pronunciations
diverged during centuries of phonetic and dialectic
evolution. Nevertheless, it is likely that the phonetic
clue is underexploited rather than overexploited by students
of hanja .
Category Five: Derived Meanings
Derived Meanings originally belonged to one of the first
four categories of characters. The evolution of Chinese gen-
erated a need to assign abstract meanings to characters with
concrete denotations. Graphs of this type took on abstract
meanings but maintained their original denotation as well. An
example is 9, originally a Simple Pictograph of a man sitting
with crossed legs. Its derived meanings are "exchange, com-
INTRODUrnON
municate, intercourse, mix, join." This leap in meaning is
comprehensible to anyone who has watched old Korean
gentlemen sit cross legged by the hour and "communicate"
with cronies. Chtng Ch'iao assigned 372 of his characters to
this category. Its characters are best learned by relating their
original and derived meanings.
Category Six: Arbitrary Meanings
Characters of this type also belonged to one of the first four
categories and took on additional denotations, but they sur-
rendered their original meanings altogether. An example
is jff , a Simple Pictograph of a growing stalk of grain. Other
characters possessed the same meaning, but there was no
character for "to come," which was pronounced the same as
% . As a homophone, % was pressed into service to denote
"to come" and has maintained only that meaning for millenia.
Graphs of this category account for 598 of the characters of
ChSng Ch'iao. They are best learned arbitrarily.
HINTS ON LEARNING Ii ANJA
There is no royal road to learning characters, but the task
is not as difficult as it may appear, either. The sheer number
of hanja is daunting; large character dictionaries may run to
50,000 entries. But no one need learn anything like this ridic-
ulous number, and fewer than 300 discrete graphs compose all
others. A study in Taiwan showed that the most common 400
characters in use there comprised fully seventy-three percent
of all written material. (DeFrancis, page xix.)
The learning of Chinese characters will unavoidably entail
some memorization. Homemade flash cards and repeated
writing of characters can be valuable memorization aids. Any-
thing, including hanja , is easier to learn when approached as
part of a meaningful context. Those already participating in
a Korean language program can easily meld specific informa-
tion about the 1,800 Basic Characters into their language
materials. Those undertaking independent study can meld
16
INTRODUCTlON
characters into available selections of written Korean . The
vocabulary words accompanying each character in this book
can also supply a measure of meaningful context. The 900
middle school characters in the appendix can be useful
because the most common and frequently used characters
appear in this list in the order they are first learned by Korean
pupils.
Early attention to radicals, the 214 characters under which
all others are listed in hanja dictionaries, is recommended for
all. Familiarity with the radicals is requisite to the full use
of a dictionary, and many radicals are numbered among the
discrete graphs which comprise all others. The radicals can
be found in the radical index of this handbook.
A student of hacia will find it valuable to develop the habit
of estimating to which of the Six Categories a target character
belongs since this will enable him to choose an appropriate
learning strategy for it. Consult the preceding section of the
Introduction for suggestions on learning strategies for each of
the Six Categories of Chinese characters.
The vast majority of characters, perhaps ninety percent of
all hanja, belong to the Phonetic Compound category. Each
graph of this type mntains an internal clue to its own pro-
nunciation. One beginning student schooled himself to look
for this internal phonetic clue, and, on a quiz, successfully
matched readings to eleven of thirteen Phonetic Compounds
he had not previously encountered. The student will be well
advised to make it a practice to estimate the reading of a target
character, whether newly-encountered or unrecalled, by
assigning to it the pronunciation of its major component
elements.
A forthcoming handbook by the present editor will contain
some 2,000 characters arranged in sets. Each graph in a set
contains the same phonetic element and shares an identical
or similar reading as well. The mnemonic value of a set of
characters which both look and sound alike can be appreciated
by perusing the following chart.

EXPLANATION OF A SAMPLE CHARACI'ER ENTRY
The character entry below is typical of the 1,800 in A Guide
to Korean Characters.
Sample Entry
The main character of the sample entry, 2 , is one of the
Basic Hania taught in a11Korean secondary schools. It appears
first in a large-type, slightly-abbreviated form common in
published material. In the box beneath the main character is
listed the radical under which it can be found in a character
dictionary. This radical is given in its unabbreviated form,
while it may appear in the main character in its common,
abbreviated form. (A chart of abbreviated radicals appears
on page 348.) The number to the right of the radical indicates
the number of strokes in the non-radical portion of the main
character, datum that is vital when using a hanja dictionary.
INTRODUrnON
The 1,800 main entries are numbered consecutively. For 7 ,
this number is 238. These character numbers are used in cross
references and indices.
To the right of the main character are nine squares in which
its proper stroke order is progressively illustrated. The com-
plete pen-written form of the main character occurs as the
final entry in these squares. It is important to compare and
contrast the written and printed forms of the main character
since both will be encountered in reading materials.
The formal definition, or hun, of the main character occurs
in the upper left corner of the area following the writing
models. The hun for the sample character is 2 x 1 . This is
followed to the right by English definitions of the main char-
acter and by its reading, or u'm, in boldface hangiil. In the
sample entry, this iim is xi. The hun and iim are ordinarily
said together as a verbal means of identifying a character.
Sample voc3bulary words comprise the remainder of the
entry:These were selected on the basis of frequency of use in
the language. Usually, three such words are included in an
entry. The hanja typeface used for sample words is the
stylized variation increasingly common in published material.
Compare and contrast these with the main character typeface
in an entry.
A Guide to Korean Characters is designed to aid in learn-
ing hangiil and hania . As a mini-dictionary, its English def-
initions are not exhaustive. For the convenience of the reader
and to exploit limited space, many English definitions appear
in verbal, adjectival or adverbial form even though Korean
referents may occur only as nouns.
English definitions were purposely inserted between hanja
entries and their hangiil readings in order to cause the eye of
the reader to encounter first hanja and then its English mean-
ing before coming to pronunciation. This arrangement may
facilitate the learning process by obliging the reader to relate
form and meaning for milliseconds before dealing with pro-
nunciation.

INTRODUCTION INTROWCTION
WRITING CHARACI'ERS
A general rule of writing is to make the graphs of uniform
size no matter how simple or complex they may be. Hanja are
listed in character dictionaries in ways inextricably related to
stroke count. (See How to Use a Character Dictionary, p.347.)
A character must be written, therefore, with strokes of con-
stant shape set down in unvarying order. Details regarding
stroke type and stroke order are provided below, but the
reader will doubtless find the writing models accompanying
each character in the text to be a more practical calligraphic
guide.
Types of Strokes
The following chart illustrates eighteen types of strokes
used in writing characters. The samples are done in brush
style, but the principles also apply to pen calligraphy. Gen-
erally, perpendicular strokes are made from top to bottom,
while horizontal strokes are made from left to right. Even
when it includes an angle, a stroke is written without lifting
pen from paper. I

The Rules of Stroke Order
Two basic rules govern stroke order.
1. Top to bottom.
2. Left to right.
Seven auxiliary rules also control the order of strokes.
3. ~orizontal strokes usually are written first when they
cross perpendicular ones.
mj
4. Sometimes the reverse is true.
5. A center stroke is written first, then the left and final-
ly the right.
6. An enclosure precedes its contents.
7. Diagonals running to the left precede diagonals flow-
ing to the right.
8. A piercing perpendicular-stroke is written last.
l NTR0WCnON
9. A piercing horizontal stroke is written last.
GLOSSARY
Basic Characters. Basic Characters are the 1,800 hanja
taught by order of the Ministry of Education since 1972 in all
Korean middle and high schools. Their formal name is "Basic
Characters for Use in Classical Korean Instruction" (hanmun
kyoylakyong kich'o hanja).
Basic Hanja . See Basic Characters.
Chinese Characters. See Six Categories of Chinese Char-
acters.
Classical Korean. Classical Korean (hanmun) is classical
Chinese used by Koreans as their written language for more
than 1,500 years.
Hangiil. Hangu'l is the modern name for the Korean
alphabet promulgated in 1446 but not widely used until the
present century.
Hanja . See Sino-Korean Characters.
Ideograph. An ideograph is a symbol representing an
object or an idea but not the sound associated with that object
or idea in spoken language.
Polysynthetic . Polysynthesism is the grammatical practice
in Korean of combining word elements into a single word that
can be the equivalent of phrases or even a sentence in English.
Phonetic Compound. One of the Six Categories of Chinese
characters, Phonetic Compounds comprise some ninety
percent of all characters. They are semi-ideographic and semi-
phonetic.
Reading. - The iim, or pronunciation, of a character is its
reading.
Semantic Element. A semantic element is that part of a
Phonetic Compound, usually one-half the total character,
which provides a hint to the general meaning of the compound.
INTRODV(;TION
Simple Compounds. One of the Six Categories of Chinese
characters, Simple Compounds were formed from two ele-
ments whose combined meanings provide a clue to the deno-
tation of the compound. They are ideographic.
Simple Diagrams. One of the Six Categories of Chinese
characters, Simple Diagrams depict relationships for which
a picture cannot readily be drawn.
Simple Pictographs. One of the Six Categories of Chinese
characters, Simple Pictographs are drawings of objects. They
were the first characters fabricated by the ancient Chinese.
Sino-Korean Characters. Chinese characters as they are
used in the Korean language.
Six Categories of Chinese Characters. A traditional
classification of Chinese characters into six types accordmg
to how they were originally fabricated or later accrued mean-
ing. The Six Categories are Simple Pictographs, Simple Dia-
grams, Simple Compounds; Phonetic Compounds, Derived
Meanings and Arbitrary Meanings.

HOW TO USE A CHARACTER DICTIONARY
Access to the characters in a hanja dictionary is possible
through a phonetic index, a stroke-count index or a radical
index. Each of these is explained below. Beginning students
may find the use of a radical arrangement difficult until they
have mastered basic characters.
Phonetic Index. Characters are listed in this type of index
in hang51 alphabetical order. This order appears as the first
column of the Syllable Practice Chart at the inside back cover. A
phonetic index is simple to use but suffers from limited utility
because a character can be located only if its reading is al-
ready known.
Stroke-count Index. Characters are listed in this type of
index according to the number of separate strokes used to
write them. There is no need for such an index in this book
because the 1,800 Basic Hanja in the main section are already
arranged in stroke-count order. To find a character in a stroke-
count arrangement, simply count its strokes, turn to the sec-
tion in which hanja of that stroke count are grouped and locate
the target graph. Characters are listed in radical order within
each section. It is not uncommon to miscount strokes, so if a
character is not in one stroke-count section, peruse the two
adjacent sections.
Radical Index. Character dictionaries are divided into 214
sections. Each section is headed by a radical, or "section
head," which appears as a common element in every char-
acter within its section. The order of the 214 radicals is firmly
fixed according to ascending stroke count.
To find a character in a radical arrangement, it is first
necessary to estimate which part of the target character serves
as its radical. Familiarity with the radicals will facilitate this
task, and it is generally the case that the left-hand or topmost
component of a character serves as its radical. After settling
on the radical, count its strokes and pick it out of the index
from among other radicals with the same stroke count. The
index will indicate the page of the dictionary proper where
347
INDEX
the desired radical section begins. Next, determine the stroke
count of the non-radiqal portion of the target graph. Charac-
ters are listed in each radical section according to the stroke
count of their non-radical portions, so it is a simple matter to
locate a target graph among characters within a section which
share a like stroke count.
Let's assume we want to find the character, g, in a diction-
ary. By inspection, we take a as the radical because it is the
left-hand element. We see that our radical is composed of four
strokes, so we locate it among other four-stroke radicals in the
index and turn from there to the page in the dictionary proper
where the radical section begins. The non-radical portion
of W is 1 and also has four strokes. It is not difficult to locate
W among the characters listed in the El radical section which
have four strokes in their non-radical portions.
Commonly- A bbreviated Radicals
Abbreviated radicals appear below in stroke-count order.
The original form of a radical is listed to the right of each ab-
breviation and is followed by its stroke count (where different)
to facilitate use of the following radical index.
