# hangul
## English
### Pronunciation

* (US) IPA: /ˈhɑnˌɡul/
* Hyphenation: han‧gul

### Etymology 1

From Korean 한글 (han'geul, “Korean script”).

#### Noun

hangul (uncountable)
* The phonetic alphabet used to write the Korean language.
    Synonym: Chosongul

##### Usage notes

* The spelling hangul from the McCune-Reischauer transcription hangŭl is the more common English spelling, though hangeul (from the Korean spelling in the 1959-SK transcription and the 2000 South Korean Revised transcription) is sometimes preferred.
* 한글 (han'geul) is the official name in South Korea, and 조선(朝鮮)글 (joseon'geul) is the official name in North Korea; hence, scholars may prefer to use hangeul in reference to South Korea, and Chosongul in reference to North Korea.
