Module:Transliterate Korean/doc

{documentation subpage}}

This template provides automatic transliteration of Korean text into the Revised Romanization (RR) or McCune-Reischauer (MR) systems, with special handling for names.

Automatically determines the appropriate transliteration system and applies any necessary modifications for surnames and given names.

All templates using this support the following parameters:

• text – the Korean text to be transliterated.
• system – the Romanization system to use. Options are "RR" for Revised Romanization or "MR" for McCune-Reischauer. Defaults to "RR".
• name – if set to "true", the function will apply special rules for names, including common modified forms for surnames and hyphenating given names. Defaults to "false".

Examples

{{Transliterate Korean
| text = 이민호
| system = RR
| name = true
}}

which produces:

Other Examples:

• Using MR for a non-name text:

{{Transliterate Korean
| text = 한글
| system = MR
}}

• Using RR without name-specific rules:

{{Transliterate Korean
| text = 한국어
| system = RR
}}
