Overview

The Korean Phonetic keyboard is built to type Korean using the Phonetic transliteration system when possible. This layout is designed to make Latin-Korean transliteration 100% unambiguous.

This mnemonic keyboard is based on the pronunciation of Korean. For an alternative accurate transliteration system, use the Korean KORDA keyboards.

The Korean Phonetic keyboard creates hangeul syllables from jamo each time you press Spacebar.
