South Korean standard language

The South Korean standard language or Pyojuneo ( Korean : 標準語 ; Hanja : 標準語 ; lit. Standard language) is the South Korean standard version of the Korean language . It is based on the Seoul dialect , although various words are borrowed from other regional dialects. It uses the Korean alphabet , created in December 1443 CE by the Joseon -era king Sejong the Great . ^[1] Unlike the North Korean standard language ( 文化語 , Munhwa? ), the South Korean standard language includes many loan-words from Chinese , as well as some from English and other European languages . ^[2]

History [ edit ]

When Korea was under Japanese rule , the use of the Korean language was regulated by the Japanese government. To counter the influence of the Japanese authorities, the Korean Language Society [ ko ] ( 한글 學會 ) began collecting dialect data from all over Korea and later created their own standard version of Korean, Pyojuneo , with the release of their book Unification of Korean Spellings ( 한글 맞춤法統一案 ) in 1933. ^[3]
