HNC Romaja

Below are some tips for the HNC Romaja keyboard setting:

• In order to write ㄸ, ㅆ, ㅃ, ㄲ, ㅉ, you can either 1) write ㄷ, ㅅ, ㅂ, ㄱ, ㅈ twice or 
  
  2) press shift + ㄷ, ㅅ, ㅂ, ㄱ, ㅈ.

• If you press shift + Vowel, it automatically adds the ㅇ (placeholder) before the vowel. For example, if you press shift + a it will show you 아.
  
• In order to write ㅑ or ㅛ, first write ㅣ and then ㅏ or ㅗ.
  

When typing in Korean, the order should be from left to right and top to bottom. Let’s practice with a word “안녕 (Hello)”.

1. x: ㅇ
   
2. a: ㅏ
   
3. n: ㄴ
   
4. n: ㄴ
   
5. i e: ㅕ
   
6. x: ㅇ
