Rules in Brief

  • When ㅅ is followed directly by ㅣ, it should be Romanized as shi.
  • Example: 다시 (again) would be dashi.
  • To avoid confusion of syllables, a hyphen can be used.
  • Example: 후에 (after) would be hu-e.
  • When ㄱ, ㄷ, ㄹ, ㅂ are found directly before vowel, they are Romanized as g, d, r, b.
  • When ㄱ, ㄷ, ㄹ, ㅂ are found directly before a consonant, they should be Romanized as k, t, r, p.
