I'd prefer either to a bunch of English words with pronunciation and meaning modified to meet local needs. I find that confusing. Especially when there are a lot of perfectly good Korean or Sino-Korean words that could be used. 4 persons have voted this message useful | |||

The tide has already turned back in the 70s... There's no going back. You miss a whole generation of Koreans who are well-versed in Chinese characters. No one there to carry the torch so to speak.

Öztürkçe coinages should be universally hated. Except that I love those made by Motoori Norinaga. They are divine. Edited by minus273 on 05 April 2010 at 6:57pm 1 person has voted this message useful | |||

WTF? On another note the world's GDP outputs are forecased as this up until 2000-2050: 2000 2010 2020 2030 2040 2050 1 CHN China 1078 2998 7070 14312 26439 44453 * EU European Union * 9395 12965 16861 21075 28323 35288 2 USA United States 9825 13271 16415 20833 27229 35165 3 IND India 469 929 2104 4935 12367 27803 4 JPN Japan 4176 4601 5221 5810 6039 6673 GDP Projection I suspect, as others do, that this is economic in nature for future children. On that note, seems like I needs to be gettin to the learnin of Mandarin and Hindi. 1 person has voted this message useful |
