Lee, Chongmin. (2021). A new proposal for the practical application of English-Korean transcriptions. The Linguistic Association of Korea Journal, 29(1), 25-48. This paper aims to review the given system of English-Korean transcription and to develop the revised version with the concepts of easiness and uniformity. Basically the vowel system should be simplified to reduce the syllable length in Korean, so the Korean people may use the imported words with uniformity. In the consonant system the positional variation of the same sound should be changed to be more consistent and recognizable among the Korean people. Often it has been assumed to maintain the idea that the foreign pronunciation should not be distorted. However, the proposed scheme has been devised to figure out how foreign words are transcribed more consistently. Though there are some exceptions existent in transcribed words, it can be concluded that the easiness and uniformity of English transcription can be systemized more effectively. |
