Three Rules in Writing the Korean Alphabet Each Korean symbol is made up of a definite number of strokes written in a prescribed sequence called "stroke order". It is important to write symbols in the correct stroke order. Observe the following general rules: Rule 1 Rule 2 Rule 3 The symbol for a consonant, which begins a syllable, must be written before the vowel symbol. For example, ㅇ before ㅏ to form 아. The movement of each stroke must be from LEFT to RIGHT or TOP to BOTTOM. If a symbol involves more than one stroke (like ㅏ or ㅗ ), the movement should again be LEFT to RIGHT ( ㅣ and then ㅡ to form ㅏ ) or TOP to BOTTOM ( ㅣ and then ㅡ to form ㅗ ). 2

Without this skill students will not be able to expand their vocabulary and learn the definitions of new words. This section is designed to assist you in the development of this skill. The following table shows the alphabetical order or dictionary sequence of Korean syllables. First, arrange the words according to the consonant sequence. Then, if two words or more begin with the same consonant, arrange them in proper vowel order.
