Addendum

The North Korean romanization was actually last updated in 2012. One interesting (yet inconsistently used) change is capitalizing KK, TT, SS, JJ at the beginning of proper names, like so: KKotpuni, JJilregol. Notice how both consonants get capitalized. I'm not sure if that's intentional. Everything else is just like the 2002 version, but rephrased. Andreyyshore 🆃︎ 🅲︎ 12:14, 1 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

consonant clusters

how does nieun-rieul as in Chollima (chon-ri-ma) becomes nn, while nieun-nieun becomes ll? isn't it a mistake? isn't the initial consonant that modify the final, as in ip-ni-ta ➡ imnida? 2A01:E0A:984:A320:34A9:E25C:C8E8:5246 (talk) 16:04, 26 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Discussion participation

Hello,

We're currently rewriting MOS:KO and are considering whether we should recommend the use of this writing system on Wikipedia instead of McCune–Reischauer for North Korea–related articles.
