I will tell you about Korean Language, Hangeul. We, Koreans use our own alphabet, Hangeul. Hangeul was invented under the great king Sejong. King Sejong was the fourth ruler of the Joseon Dynasty of Korea from 1419-1450. His reign was a period of great cultural and intellectual accomplishment in Korea. Why did he decide to invent New alphabet? In that time, many people were illiterate except noblesse. Because the Chinese letters or Idu is difficult for common people to learn. King Sejong had a pity on his people so, he direct scholars to invent new letter. It is an surprise idea in that time that a ruler invent new letters for his nations. When Hangeul was first invented, it was called Hunminjeongeum. Hunminjeongeum means the proper sounds to instruct the people. Is it great?Original Hangeul consisted of 28 letters but today we use 24 letters, 14 consonants and 10 vowels, without the four letters. Hangeul is easy to learn so, the illiteracy rate of Korean is almost 0%. If you want to learn Hangeul, i am willing to teach it.
