Baduk Terminology v0.17

Baduk Terminology v0.17

This version was released on September 28th,
2008.
This is a work in progress, compiled from
many online and offline sources by Marcel
Gr
unauer, with help from Kim Byung-moon
(
). There are still many things that
cant be right.
For example, some terms
have multiple, partially conflicting, meanings,
and there are several terms for the same
thing.
Please send additions, corrections
and comments to marcel@noug.at.
Check
http://hanekomu.at/go/baduk terminology.pdf
regularly for updates.
There are five sections: The first section,
Baduk Terms, provides english translations
for words and phrases often found in Korean
baduk books. The second section, Baduk Book
Guide, provides translations for titles of Korean baduk books. The third section, Baduk
Titles and Events, lists the names of tournaments, titles and other important Baduk events.
The fourth section, Player Names, lists the
names of korean (as well as other) players along
with their romanizations. The last section, Example Phrases provides useful phrases to use
on baduk servers or when speaking with your
Korean baduk friends.
Entries are sorted according to hangeul alphabetical order. Pronunciation for the hangeul
terms is given according to the Revised Romanization, which was officially introduced by South
Korean authorities in 2000.
Note that [eo] is pronounced like the aw in
thaw ;
[ae] like the a in bat;
[j ] like the
dg in edge;
[ch] like the aspirated ch in chop;
[eu] like the u in pull, but without the lip
rounding. Before
[i ],
[s] (but not
[ss])
is pronouned sh. Double consonants are voiceless, not aspirated and more explosive than their
single counterparts.

Language Notes
Making nouns from verbs For many korean
verbs you can take the dictionary form (the
one ending in - [da]) and replace the with - [gi ], thereby using the verb as a
noun. For example,
[baggwochida]
to trade (verb);
[baggwochigi ] the
trading (noun). Therefore, if you see a word
ending in - and you dont find it in this
dictionary, see if the corresponding - form
is listed.

X
X0

Plural marker [deul ] is the particle for

forming a plural. Only necessary if you
explicitly dont mean the singular; normally, a noun can be singular and plural, depending on the context. Examples:
[dol ] stone(s),
[doldeul ] stones;
[chaek ] book(s),
[chaekdeul ] books;
[jeongseok ] standard sequence(s),
[jeongseokdeul ] standard sequences.
