The Korean phonetic system distinguishes between 7 monophthongs, or pure vowels. So while both languages share many sounds in common, the phonetic notations in Vocaloid can differ somewhat. Since Japanese only includes one glide /j/, it is always written in the onset of a syllable as a palatalized consonant, rather than as part of the vowel. However the vowel may include a glide, which causes another major difference between Korean's system and Japanese. Korean syllables are traditionally separated into three parts: CVC (Consonant-Vowel-Consonant). This can cause confusion for users as the similar transcriptions for consonant phonemes in Korean do not match the sounds in other languages. As a result, Korean does not distinguish between unvoiced and voiced rather, both are allophones of a single phoneme /k/. Unlike English and Japanese which classifies stop consonants based on voiced and unvoiced pairs, Korean distinguishes between three sets of initial stop consonants plain, tense and aspirated. ![]() This is somewhat due to the nature of hangul, which already functions as a phonetic alphabet. The phonetic system for Korean Vocaloids uses less standard transcription compared to the typical notation used by other languages that are based on X-SAMPA. ![]() ![]() The following are a list of Vocaloids that use Korean.
