    Quick question for anyone who speaks Korean

    What would the Korean characters look like for the name Yu-jin Chang? And how are they put together to form the full name? You can't just put them side-by-side and bam, you're done, right?

    open+yu for Yu

    ch/j+i
    over
    n for -jin

    ch+a
    over
    ng for the last

    Is how I think it would be done. last names are usually written first.

    np but if you can run it by anyone else, I'd suggest doing so, because I'm only very early on in learning the language.

    oh and it's probably

    open
    over
    yu

    for "yu", since u/yu is a horizontal (iirc its the horizontal line with two downward dashes).

    alright thanks, I'll see if I can find someone else to verify it. are you taking classes to learn the language? or using computer programs?

    k im korean yo

    in hangul it looks like this: 유진 장, or in korean order 장유진 (surname comes first)
    this is my friends name, odd coincidence lol

    yu is ㅇ[y]+ ㅠ[u] (유)
    jin is ㅈ + ㅣ + ㄴ (진) 지 is ji, ㄴ adds the n
    chang is ㅈ + ㅏ + ㅇ (장) 자 is cha, ㅇ adds the ng at the end

    does the korean text show up? if so, i think you'd be able to see the hangul and just think of it as a drawing and match'em up
