Notes

Since Korean doesn't have nasal vowels, indicate nasal vowels of French by adding /ŋ/ at the end. Note that the nasal vowel in words like 'fin' and 'train' are transcribed /æŋ/. The 'w' sound is always transcribed as /u/, so the sound represented by the combination 'oi' is transcribed /ua/. The 'y' sound ([j] in IPA) of French need only be transcribed as /y/ at the end of a word, e.g. taille /tay/, or in between vowels, e.g. billet /biye/. In other positions, transcribe the sound as /i/, e.g. hier /ier/, champion /šaŋpioŋ/. The semivowel corresponding to the French 'u' sound ([ɥ] in IPA) is always transcribed as /ü/ just like its corresponding full vowel, e.g. Suisse /süis/, lueur /lüör/.
