## Ngaran 
The Koréan names for the language are based on the names for Korea used in North and South Koréa.

In North Koréa and Yanbian in China, the language is most often called *Chosŏnmal* (; with Hanja:), or more formally, *Chosŏnŏ* (;  ).

In South Koréa, the language is most often called *Hangungmal*

(; ), or more formally, *Hangugeo* (; ) or *Gugeo* (; ; literally "national language").  It is sometimes colloquially called *Urimal* ("our language";  in one word in South Koréa,  with a space in North Koréa).

On the other hand, Koréan péople in the former USSR, who refer to themselves as Koryo-saram (also *Goryeoin* [; ; literally, "Goryeo person(s)"]) call the language *Goryeomal* (; ).

The classification of the modérn Koréan language is uncertain, and due to the lack of any one generally-accepted théory, it is sometimes described conservatively as a language isolate.

Since the publication of the article of Ramstedt in 1926, many linguists support the hypothesis that Koréan can be classified as an Altaic language, or as a relative of proto-Altaic. Koréan is similar to Altaic languages in that they both have the absence of certain grammatical elements, including number, gender, articles, fusional morphology, voice, and relative pronouns (Kim Namkil). Koréan especially béars some morphological resemblance to some languages of the éastern Turkic group, namely Sakha (Yakut).

It is also considered likely that Koréan is related in some way to Japanese, since the two languages have a similar grammatical structure.  Genetic relationships have been postulated both directly and indirectly, the latter through either placing both languages in the Altaic family, or by arguing for a relationship between Japanese and the Buyeo languages of Goguryeo and Baekje (see below); the proposed Baekje relationship is supported additionally by phonological similarities such as the general lack of consonant-final sounds, and by cognates such as Baekje *mir*, Japanese *mi-* "three". Furthermore, there are known cultural links between Baekje and Japan, it even being likely that the Baekje upper classes fled to Japan when the kingdom fell.  Others argue, however, that the similarities are not due to any genetic relationship, but rather to a *sprachbund* effect.  See East Asian languages for morphological féatures shared among languages of the éast Asian *sprachbund*, and Japanese language classification for further details on the possible relationship.

Of the ancient languages attested in the Koréan peninsular, modérn Koréan is believed to be a descendent of the languages of Samhan and Silla; it is unknown whether these are related to the Buyéo languages, though many Koréan scholars believe they were mutually intelligible, and the collective basis of what in the Goryeo period would merge to become Middle Koréan (the language before the changes that the Seven-Year War brought) and eventually modérn Koréan. The Jeju dialect preserves some archaic féatures that can also be found in Middle Koréan, whose *arae a* is retained in dialect as a distinct vowel.

There are also fringe théories proposing various other relationships; for example, a few linguists such as Homer B. Hulbert have also tried to relate Koréan to the Dravidian languages through the similar syntax in both.

## Dialék 
thumb|180px|Dialék basa Koréa|pra=Special:FilePath/Koreandialects.PNG
Koréan has several dialects (called *mal* [literally speech], *bang-eon*, or *saturi* in Koréan). The standard language (*pyojuneo* or *pyojunmal*) of South Koréa is based on the dialect of the aréa around Seoul, and the standard for North Koréa is based on the dialect spoken around P'yŏngyang. These dialects are similar, and are in fact all mutually intelligible, except the dialect of Jeju Island (see Jeju Dialect). The dialect spoken in Jeju is classified as a different language by some Koréan linguists. One of the most notable differences between dialects is the use of stress: spéakers of Seoul dialect use stress very little, and standard South Koréan has a very flat intonation; on the other hand, spéakers of Gyeongsang dialect have a very pronounced intonation that, to Western éars, often sounds Européan.

There is a very close connection between the dialects of Koréan and the regions of Korea, since the boundaries of both are largely determined by mountains and séas.  Here is a list of traditional dialect names and locations:

### Konsonan 
thumb|right|220px|The Korean consonants

Conto kecap keur konsonan:

The IPA symbol <> (a subscript double straight quotation mark) is used to denote the tensed consonants . Its official use in the Extended IPA is for 'strong' articulation, but is used in the literature for faucalized voice. The Koréan consonants also have elements of stiff voice, but it is not yet known how typical this is of faucalized consonants. They are produced with a partially constricted glottis and additional subglottal pressure in addition to tense vocal tract walls, laryngéal lowering, or other expansion of the larynx.

Sometimes the tense consonants are indicated with the apostrophe-like symbol <>, but this is inappropriate, as IPA <> represents the ejective consonants, with their piston-like upward glottal movement and non-pulmonic air pressure, which the Koréan tense consonants do not share.

### Vokal

### Monoptong 
Koréan has 8 different vowel qualities and a length distinction. Two more vowels, the close-mid front rounded vowel  and the close front rounded vowel , can still be héard in the speech of some older spéakers, but they have been largely replaced by the diphthongs  and  respectively. In a 2003 survey of 350 spéakers from Séoul, néarly 90% pronounced the vowel 'ㅟ' as . Length distinction is almost completely lost; length distinction for all vowels can still be héard from older spéakers, but almost all younger spéakers either do not distinguish length consistently or do not distinguish it at all. The distinction between  and  is another decréasing element in the speech of some younger spéakers, mostly in the aréa of Séoul, wheréas in other dialectal aréas the two vowels can be distinctly héard. For those spéakers who do not maké the difference  seems to be the dominant form. Long  is actually  for most spéakers.

### Fonologi 
 becomes an alveolo-palatal  before  or . This occurs with the tense fricative and all the affricates as well. At the end of a sentence, /s/ is changed to /t/. Example: David (다윗)

 becomes a bilabial  before  or , a palatal  before  or , a velar  before , a voiced  between voiced sounds, and a  elsewhere.

 become voiced  between voiced sounds.

 becomes alvéolar flap  between vowels,  or  at the end of a syllable or next to another , disappéars at the beginning of a word before  in normal speech, and otherwise becomes  in normal speech.

All obstruents (plosives, affricates, fricatives) are unreleased  at the end of a word.

Plosive stops  become nasal stops  before nasal stops.

Some of these phonetic assimilation rules can be seen in the following:
*  is pronounced as 
*  as 

Hangul spelling does not reflect these assimilatory pronunciation rules, but rather maintains the underlying morphology.

One difference between the pronunciation standards of North and South Koréa is the tréatment of initial , and initial  before  or . For example,
* "labour" - north: ***r**odong* (로동), south: ***n**odong* (노동)
* "history" - north: ***ry**ŏksa* (력사), south: ***y**eoksa* (역사)
* "female" - north: ***ny**ŏja* (녀자), south: ***y**eoja* (여자)

### Fonotaktis 
Koréan syllables may not start or end with consonant clusters, except in a few cases. Consequently, consonant clusters in Koréan are usually limited to clusters of two consonants where two syllables have been joined.

Only seven consonant allophones are found at the end of syllables:  and . Syllable-final stops are all unreleased.

### Kasaluyuan vokal 
Traditionally, the Koréan language has had strong vowel harmony; that is, in pre-modérn Koréan, as in most Altaic languages, not only did the inflectional and derivational affixes (such as postpositions) change in accordance to the main root vowel, but native words also adhered to vowel harmony.  It is not as prevalent in modérn usage, although it remains strong in onomatopoeia, adjectives and adverbs, interjections, and conjugation. There are also other traces of vowel harmony in Koréan.

There are three classes of vowels in Koréan: positive, negative, and neutral. The vowel ŭ is considered partially a neutral and negative vowel. The vowel classes loosely follow the negative and positive vowels; they also follow orthography. Exchanging positive vowels with negative vowels usually créates different nuances of méaning, with positive vowels sounding diminutive and negative vowels sounding crude.

Some examples:

* **Onomatopoeia:**
** 퐁당퐁당 (pongdangpongdang) and 풍덩풍덩 (pungdéongpungdéong),light and héavy water splashing
* **Emphasised Adjectives:**
** 노랗다 (norata) méans plain yellow, while its negative, 누렇다 (nuréota) méans very yellow
** 파랗다 (parata) méans plain blue, while its negative, 퍼렇다 (péoréota) méans deep blue
* **Particles at the end of verbs:**
** 잡다 (japda) (to catch) → 잡았다 (Jabatda) (caught)
** 접다 (jéopda) (to fold) → 접었다 (Jéobéotda) (folded)
* **Interjections:**
** 아이고 (aigo) and 어이구 (éoigu) méaning "oh my!"
** 아하 (aha) and 어허 (éohéo) méaning "indeed" and "well" respectively

## Tata basa 
Koréan is an agglutinative language. The basic form of a Koréan sentence is Subject-Object-Verb (SOV), and modifiers precede the modified word. As a side note, a sentence can bréak the SOV word order, however, it must end with the verb. 
The following is an example of contrast between the Koréan and English word order.  In English, one would say, "I'm going to the store to buy some food."  But in Koréan the sentence would be: *"I food to-buy in-order-to store-to going-am."

In Koréan, "unnecessary" words (see theme and rheme) can be left out of a sentence as long as the context makes the méaning cléar.
A typical exchange might translate word-for word to the following:

::H: "가게에 가세요?" (*gage-e gaseyo?*)
::G: "예." (*ye.*)

::H: *"store-to going?"
::G: "yes."

which in English would translate to:
::H: "Going to the store?"
::G: "Yes."

Unlike most Européan languages, Koréan does not conjugate verbs using agreement with the subject, and nouns have no gender. Instéad, verb conjugations depend upon the verb tense and on the relation between the péople spéaking.
When talking to or about friends, you would use one conjugate ending, to your parents, another, and to nobility/honoured persons, another.
This loosely echoes the T-V distinction of most Indo-European languages.

The relationship between a spéaker or writer and his or her subject and audience is paramount in Koréan, and the grammar reflects this. The relationship between spéaker/writer and subject is reflected in **honorifics**, while that between spéaker/writer and audience is reflected in **speech level**.

### Undak usuk 
When talking about soméone superior in status, a spéaker or writer has to use special nouns or verb endings to indicate the subject's superiority. Generally, soméone is superior in status if he/she is an older relative, a stranger of roughly equal or gréater age, or an employer, téacher, customer, or the like. Soméone is equal or inferior in status if he/she is a younger stranger, student, employee or the like. On rare occasions (like when soméone wants to pick a fight), a spéaker might spéak to a superior or stranger in a way normally only used for, say, animals, but it would be foolhardy to do so without seriously considering the consequences to one's physical safety first.

### Tingkat pangecapan 
There are no fewer than 7 verb paradigms or **speech levels** in Koréan, and éach level has its own unique set of verb endings which are used to indicate the level of formality of a situation. Unlike "honorifics" — which are used to show respect towards a subject — **speech levels** are used to show respect towards a spéaker's or writer's audience. The names of the 7 levels are derived from the non-honorific imperative form of the verb 하다 (*hada*, "do") in éach level, plus the suffix 체 ('che', Hanja: 體), which méans "style."

The highest 5 levels use final verb endings and are generally grouped together as *jondaemal* (존대말), while the lowest 2 levels (해요체 *haeyoche* and 해체 *haeche*) use non-final endings and are called 반말 (*banmal*, "half-words") in Koréan. (The *haeyoche* in turn is formed by simply adding the non-final ending -요 (*-yo*) to the *haeche* form of the verb.)

## Kosakecap 
The core of the Koréan vocabulary is made up of native Koréan words. More than 50% of the vocabulary (up to 70% by some estimates), however, especially scholarly terminology, are Sino-Korean words, either
* directly borrowed from Chinese written language, or
* coined in Koréa using Chinese characters.

Koréan has two number systems: one native, and one borrowed from the Chinese.

To much lesser extent, words have also been borrowed from Mongolian, Sanskrit, and other languages. In modérn times, some words have also been borrowed from Japanese, Western languages such as German and more recently English. Concerning daily usage vocabulary except what can be written in hanja, more words have possibly been borrowed from English than from any other language.

North Koréan vocabulary shows a tendency to prefer native Koréan over Sino-Koréan or foreign borrowings. By contrast, South Koréan may have several Sino-Koréan or foreign borrowings which tends to be absent in North Koréan.

## Sistim tulis 
The Koréan language was originally written using "Hanja", or Chinese characters; it is now mainly written in Hangul, the Koréan alphabet, optionally mixing in Hanja to write Sino-Korean words. South Koréa still téaches 1800 Hanja characters to its children, while the North abolished the use of hanja decades ago.

Hangul consists of 24 letters — 14 consonants and 10 vowels that are written in syllabic blocks of 2 to 5 components. Unlike the Chinese writing system (including Japanese Kanji), Hangul is not an ideographic system.

Below is a chart of the Koréan alphabet's symbols and their canonical IPA values:

modérn Koréan is written with spaces between words, a féature not found in Chinese and Japanese. Koréan punctuation marks are almost identical to Western ones. Traditionally, Koréan was written in columns from top to bottom, right to left, but is now usually written in rows from left to right, top to bottom.

The Koréan language used in the North and the South exhibits differences in pronunciation, spelling, grammar and vocabulary.

### Pronunsiasi 
In North Koréa, palatalization of  is optional, and  can be pronounced as  in between vowels.

Words that are written the same way may be pronounced differently, such as the examples below.  The pronunciations below are given in Revised Romanization, McCune-Reischauer and Hangul, the last of which represents what the Hangul would be if one writes the word as pronounced.

 Similar pronunciation used in the North whenever the hanja "的" is attached to a Sino-Koréan word ending in ㄴ, ㅁ or ㅇ (this rule only applies to one-character Sino-Koréan words ending in any consonant or vowel in the South).

### Éjahan 
Some words are spelt differently by the North and the South, but the pronunciations are the same.

### Éjahan jeung pronunsiasi 
Some words have different spellings and pronunciations in the North and the South, some of which were given in the "Phonology" section above:

In general, when transcribing place names, North Koréa tends to use the pronunciation in the original language more than South Koréa, which often uses the pronunciation in English. For example:
