Hangul consonant and vowel tables
The following tables of consonants and [|vowels] of the Korean alphabet display the basic forms in blue in the first row, and their derivatives in the following rows. They are separated into tables of [|initials], vowels and [|finals].
Jamo are romanized according to the Revised Romanization's transliteration rules. Thus, the table should not be used for normal transcription of Korean language, as sound changes must be observed.
Leading consonants (''choseong'')
Medial vowels (''jungseong'')
Trailing consonants (''jongseong'')
Collation
Several collation sequences are used to order words. The first sequence is official in South Korea ; sequences of the second type are common in North Korea, differing on the treatment of composite jamo consonants in syllable-leading and -trailing position, and on the treatment of composite jamo vowels in syllable-medial position.| Principle | Sort every composite jamo grouped after their leading single jamo |
| Consonants | ㄱ ㄴ ㄷ ㄹ ㅁ ㅂ ㅅ ㅇ ㅈ ㅊ ㅋ ㅌ ㅍ ㅎ |
| Vowels | ㅏ ㅐ ㅑ ㅒ ㅓ ㅔ ㅕ ㅖ ㅗ ㅘ ㅙ ㅚ ㅛ ㅜ ㅝ ㅞ ㅟ ㅠ ㅡ ㅢ ㅣ |
| Principle | Sort all single jamo before all composite jamo and leading ieung |
| Consonants | ㄱ ㄴ ㄷ ㄹ ㅁ ㅂ ㅅ ‑ᆼ ㅈ ㅊ ㅋ ㅌ ㅍ ㅎ ㄲ ㄸ ㅃ ㅆ ㅉ ᄋ‑ |

Consonant letters' names
Variants are given in brackets.Consonant names in the 15th century seem to have ended in a vowel, judging from 1451 Hunmin Jeongeum Eonhae's forms such as "ㄱ는", which may have been pronounced geuneun.
