制字解: The Rules of the Characters Explained
天地之道 一陰陽五行而已

坤復之間爲太極 而動靜之後爲陰陽

凡有生類在天地之間者 捨陰陽而何之

故人之聲音 皆有陰陽之理 顧人不察耳

今正音之作 初非智營而力索

但因其聲音而極其理而已

理旣不二 則何得不與天地鬼神同其用也

正音二十八字, 各象其形而制之. 初聲凡十七字

牙音ㄱ, 象舌根閉喉之形

舌音ㄴ, 象舌附上腭之形

脣音ㅁ, 象口形

齒音ㅅ, 象齒形

喉音ㅇ, 象喉形

ㅋ比ㄱ, 聲出稍厲, 故加畫

ㄴ而ㄷ, ㄷ而ㅌ, ㅁ而ㅂ, ㅂ而ㅍ, ㅅ而ㅈ, ㅈ而ㅊ, ㅇ而ㆆ, ㆆ而ㅎ, 其因聲加畫之義皆同, 而唯ㆁ爲異

半舌音ㄹ, 半齒音ㅿ, 亦象舌齒之形而異其體, 無加畫之義焉

夫人之有聲, 本於五行. 故合諸四時而不悖, 叶之五音而不戾

喉邃而潤, 水也

聲虛而通. 如水虛明而流通也. 於時爲冬, 於音爲羽

牙錯而長, 木也

聲似喉而實, 如木之生於水而有形也. 於時爲春, 於音爲角

舌銳而動, 火也

聲轉而颺, 如火之轉展而揚揚也. 於時爲夏, 於音爲徵

齒剛而斷, 金也

聲屑而滯, 如金之屑𤨏 而鍛成也. 於時爲秋, 於音爲商

脣方而合, 土也.

聲含而廣, 如土之含蓄萬物而廣大也. 於時爲季夏, 於音爲宮

然水乃生物之源, 火乃成物之用, 故五行之中, 水火爲大

喉乃出聲之門, 舌乃辨聲之管, 故五音之中, 喉舌爲主也

喉居後而牙次之, 北東之位也

舌齒又次之, 南西之位也

脣居末, 土無定位而寄旺四季之義也

是則初聲之中, 自有陰陽五行方位之數也

又以聲音淸濁而言之. ㄱㄷㅂㅈㅅㆆ, 爲全淸. ㅋㅌㅍㅊㅎ, 爲次淸. ㄲㄸㅃㅉㅆㆅ, 爲全濁. ㆁㄴㅁㅇㄹㅿ, 爲不淸不濁

ㄴㅁㅇ, 其聲最不厲, 故次序雖在於後, 而象形制字則爲之始

ㅅㅈ雖皆爲全淸, 而ㅅ比ㅈ, 聲不厲, 故亦爲制字之始

唯牙之ㆁ, 雖舌根閉喉聲氣出鼻, 而其聲與ㅇ相似, 故韻書疑與喩多相混用

今亦取象於喉, 而不爲牙音制字之始

盖喉屬水而牙屬木, ㆁ雖在牙而與ㅇ相似, 猶木之萌芽生於水而柔軟, 尙多水氣也

ㄱ木之成質, ㅋ木之盛長, ㄲ木之老壯, 故至此乃皆取象於牙也

全淸並書則爲全濁, 以其全淸之聲凝則爲全濁也

唯喉音次淸爲全濁者, 盖以ㆆ聲深不爲之凝, ㅎ比ㆆ聲淺, 故凝而爲全濁也

ㅇ連書脣音之下, 則爲脣輕音者, 以輕音脣乍合而喉聲多也

中聲凡十一字

ㆍ舌縮而聲深 天開於子也

形之圓 象乎天也

ㅡ舌小縮而聲不深不淺 地闢於丑也

形之平 象乎地也

ㅣ舌不縮而聲淺 人生於寅也

形之立 象乎人也

此下八聲 一闔一闢

ㅗ與ㆍ同而口蹙 其形則ㆍ與ㅡ合而成 取天地初交之義也

ㅏ與ㆍ同而口張 其形則ㅣ與ㆍ合而成 取天地之用發於事物待人而成也

ㅜ與ㅡ同而口蹙 其形則ㅡ與ㆍ合而成 亦取天地初交之義也

ㅓ與ㅡ同而口張 其形則ㆍ與ㅣ合而成 亦取天地之用發於事物待人而成也

ㅛ與ㅗ同而起於ㅣ

ㅑ與ㅏ同而起於ㅣ

ㅠ與ㅜ同而起於ㅣ

ㅕ與ㅓ同而起於ㅣ

ㅗㅏㅜㅓ始於天地 爲初出也

ㅛㅑㅠㅕ起於ㅣ而兼乎人 爲再出也

ㅗㅏㅜㅓ之一其圓者 取其初生之義也

ㅛㅑㅠㅕ之二其圓者 取其再生之義也

ㅗㅏㅛㅑ之圓居上與外者 以其出於天而爲陽也

ㅜㅓㅠㅕ之圓居下與內者 以其出於地而爲陰也

ㆍ之貫於八聲者 猶陽之統陰而周流萬物也

ㅛㅑㅠㅕ之皆兼乎人者 以人爲萬物之靈而能參兩儀也

取象於天地人而三才之道備矣

然三才爲萬物之先 而天又爲三才之始

猶ㆍㅡㅣ三字爲八聲之首 而ㆍ又爲三字之冠也

ㅗ初生於天 天一生水之位也

ㅏ次之 天三生木之位也

ㅜ初生於地 地二生火之位也

ㅓ次之 地四生金之位也

ㅛ再生於天 天七成火之數也

ㅑ次之 天九成金之數也

ㅠ再生於地 地六成水之數也

ㅕ次之 地八成木之數也

水火未離乎氣 陰陽交合之初 故闔

木金陰陽之定質 故闢

ㆍ天五生土之位也

ㅡ地十成土之數也

ㅣ獨無位數者 盖以人則無極之眞 二五之精 妙合而凝 固未可以定位成數論也

是則中聲之中 亦自有隂陽五行方位之數也

以初聲對中聲而言之.

隂陽，天道也.

剛柔，地道也.

中聲者，一深一淺一闔一闢，是則隂陽分而五行之氣具焉, 天之用也.

初聲者，或虗或實或颺或滯或重若軽，是則剛柔著而五行之質成焉，地之功也.

中聲以深淺闔闢唱之於前，初聲以五音清濁和之於後，而為初亦為終.

亦可見萬物初生於地，復歸於地也.

以初中終合成之字言之，亦有動静互根隂陽交變之義焉.

動者，天也.

静者，地也.

兼互動静者，人也.

盖五行在天則神之運也，在地則質之成也，在人則仁禮信義智神之運也，肝心脾肺腎，質之成也.

初聲有彂動之義，天之事也.

終聲有止㝎之義，地之事也.

中聲承初之生，接終之成，人之事也.

盖字韻之要，在於中聲，初終合而成音.

亦猶天地生成萬物，而其財成輔相則必頼乎人也.

終聲之，復用初聲者，以其動而陽者乾也，静而隂者亦乾也，乾實分隂陽而無不君宰也.

一元之氣，周流不窮，四時之運，循環無端，故貞而復元，冬而復春. 初聲之復為終，終聲之復為初，亦此義也.

旴，正音作而天地萬物之理咸備，其神矣㦲.

是殆天啓聖心而假手焉者乎.

訣曰: Summarized
天地之化本一氣

陰陽五行相始終

物於兩間有形聲

元本無二理數通

正音制字尙其象

因聲之厲每加畫

音出牙舌脣齒喉

是爲初聲字十七

牙取舌根閉喉形

唯業似欲取義別

舌迺象舌附上腭

脣則實是取口形

齒喉直取齒喉象

知斯五義聲自明

又有半舌半齒音

取象同而體則異

那彌戌欲聲不厲

次序雖後象形始

配諸四時與冲氣

五行五音無不協

維喉爲水冬與羽

牙迺春木其音角

徵音夏火是舌聲

齒則商秋又是金

脣於位數本無定

土而季夏爲宮音

聲音又自有淸濁

要於初發細推尋

全淸聲是君斗彆

卽戌挹亦全淸聲

若迺快呑漂侵虛

五音各一爲次淸

全濁之聲虯覃步

又有慈邪亦有洪

全淸並書爲全濁

唯洪自虛是不同

業那彌欲及閭穰

其聲不淸又不濁

欲之連書爲脣輕

喉聲多而脣乍合

中聲十一亦取象

精義未可容易觀

呑擬於天聲最深

所以圓形如彈丸

卽聲不深又不淺

其形之平象乎地

侵象人立厥聲淺

三才之道斯爲備

洪出於天尙爲闔

象取天圓合地平

覃亦出天爲已闢

發於事物就人成

用初生義一其圓

出天爲陽在上外

欲穰兼人爲再出

二圓爲形見其義

君業戌彆出於地

據例自知何湏評

呑之爲字貫八聲

維天之用徧流行

四聲兼人亦有由

人參天地爲最靈

且就三聲究至理

自有剛柔與陰陽

中是天用陰陽分

初迺地功剛柔彰

中聲唱之初聲和

天先乎地理自然

和者爲初亦爲終

物生復歸皆於坤

陰變爲陽陽變陰

一動一靜互爲根 初聲復有發生義

爲陽之動主於天 終聲比地陰之靜

字音於此止定焉

韻成要在中聲用

人能輔相天地宜

陽之爲用通於陰

至而伸則反而歸

初終雖云分兩儀

終用初聲義可知 正音之字只卄八

探賾錯綜窮深幾 指遠言近牖民易

天授何曾智巧爲

初聲解: The Initial Sounds Explained
正音初聲，卽韻書之字母也.

聲音由此而生，故曰母.

如牙音君字初聲是ㄱ，ㄱ與ᅟᅮᆫ而為군.

快字初聲是ㅋ，ㅋ與ㅙ而為쾌〮.

虯字初聲是ㄲ，ㄲ與ㅠ而為뀨.

業字初聲是ㆁ，ㆁ與ᅟᅥᆸ而為ᅌᅥᆸ之類.

舌之斗呑𫟛那，脣之彆漂步彌，齒之卽侵慈戌邪，喉之挹虗洪欲，半舌半齒之閭穰，皆倣此.

訣曰: Summarized
君快虯業其聲牙

The characters 君, 快, 虯, 業 are pronounced dorsally.

舌聲斗呑及𫟛那

The tongue pronounces the characters 斗, 呑, 𫟛, and 那.

彆漂步彌則是脣

The characters 彆, 漂, 步, 彌 therefore are labial.

齒有卽侵慈戌邪

The teeth have the sounds of the characters 卽侵慈戌邪.

挹虗洪欲迺喉聲

The characters 挹虛洪欲 are therefore of glottal sounds.

閭為半舌穰半齒

The character 閭 is semi-coronal, and the character 穰 is semi-dental.

二十三字是為母

These twenty three characters are the mother-sounds.

萬聲生生皆自此

All sounds therefore are birthed from here.

中聲解: The Middle Sounds Explained
中聲者, 居字韻之中, 合初終而成音.

如呑字中聲是ㆍ, ㆍ居ㅌㄴ之間而爲.

卽字中聲是ㅡ, ㅡ居ㅈㄱ之間而爲즉.

侵字中聲是ㅣ, ㅣ居ㅊㅁ之間而爲침之類.

洪覃君業欲穰戌彆, 皆倣此.

二字合用者, ㅗ與ㅏ同出於ㆍ, 故合而爲ㅘ.

ㅛ與ㅑ又同出於ㅣ, 故合而爲ㆇ.

ㅜ與ㅓ同出於ㅡ, 故合而爲ㅝ.

ㅠ與ㅕ又同出於ㅣ 故合而爲ㆊ.

以其同出而爲類, 故相合而不悖也.

一字中聲之與ㅣ相合者十, ㅓㅢㅚㅐㅟㅔㆉㅒㆌㅖ是也.

二字中聲之與ㅣ相合者四, ㅙㅞㆈㆋ是也.

ㅣ於深淺闔闢之聲, 竝能相隨者, 以其舌展聲淺而便於開口也.

亦可見人之參贊開物而無所不通也.

訣曰:Summarized
母字之音各有中

須就中聲尋闢闔 洪覃自呑可合用 君業出卽亦可合 欲之與穰戌與彆 各有所從義可推 侵之爲用最居多 於十四聲徧相隨

終聲解: The Final Sounds Explained
終聲者，承初中而成字韻.

如卽字終聲是ㄱ，ㄱ居즈終而為즉.

洪字終聲是ㆁ，ㆁ居ᅘᅩ終而為ᅘᅩᇰ之類.

舌脣齒喉皆同.

聲有緩急之殊，故平上去其終聲不類入聲之促急.

不清不濁之字，其聲不厲，故用於終則宜於平上去.

全清次清全濁之字，其聲為厲，故用於終則宜於入.

所以ㆁㄴㅁㅇㄹㅿ六字為平上去聲之終，而餘皆為入聲之終也.

然ㄱㆁㄷㄴㅂㅁㅅㄹ八字可足用也.

如ᄇᆡᆺ곶為梨花，여ᇫ의갗為狐皮，而ㅅ字可以通用.

故只用ㅅ字.

且ㅇ聲淡而虗，不必用於終，而中聲可得成音也.

ㄷ如볃為彆，ㄴ如군為君，ㅂ如ᅌᅥᆸ為業，ㅁ如땀為𫟛，ㅅ如諺語옷〮為衣，ㄹ如諺語실〯為絲之類.

五音之緩急，亦各自為對如牙之ㆁ與ㄱ為對，而ㆁ促呼則變為ㄱ而急，ㄱ舒出則變為ㆁ而緩.

舌之ㄴㄷ，脣之ㅁㅂ，齒之ㅿㅅ，喉之ㅇㆆ，其緩急相對，亦猶是也.

且半舌之ㄹ，當用於諺，而不可用於文.

如入聲之彆字，終聲當用ㄷ，而俗習讀為ㄹ，盖ㄷ變而為軽也.

若用ㄹ為彆之終，則其聲舒緩，不為入也.

訣曰: Summarized
不清不濁用於終

為平上去不為入

全清次清及全濁

是皆為入聲促急

初作終聲理固然

只將八字用不窮

唯有欲聲所當處

中聲成音亦可通

若書卽字終用君

洪彆亦以業斗終

君業𫟛終又何如

以那彆彌次第推

六聲通乎文與諺

戌閭用於諺衣絲

五音緩急各自對

君聲迺是業之促

斗彆聲緩為那彌

穰欲亦對戌與挹

閭宜於諺不宜文

斗軽為閭是俗習

合字解: The Combination of Characters Explained
初中終三聲，合而成字.

初聲或在中聲之上，或在中聲之左.

如君字ㄱ在ㅜ上，業字ㆁ在ㅓ左之類.

中聲則圓者橫者在初聲之下，ㆍㅡㅗㅛㅜㅠ是也.

縱者在初聲之右 ㅣㅏㅑㅓㅕ是也.

如呑字ㆍ在ㅌ下，卽字ㅡ在ㅈ下，侵字ㅣ在ㅊ右之類.

終聲在初中之下.

如君字ㄴ在구下，業字ㅂ在ᅌᅥ下之類.

初聲二字三字合用並書，如諺語ᄯᅡ〮為地，ᄧᅡᆨ為雙，ᄢᅳᆷ〮為隙之類.

各自並書，如諺語혀〮為舌而ᅘᅧ〮為引，괴여〮為我愛人而괴ᅇᅧ〮為人愛我，소다〮為䨱物而쏘다〮為射之之類.

中聲二字三字合用，如諺語과〮為琴柱，홰〮為炬之類.

終聲二字三字合用，如諺語ᄒᆞᆰ為𡈽，낛〮為釣，ᄃᆞᇌᄣᅢ〮為酉時之類.

其合用並書，自左而右，初中終三聲皆同.

文與諺雜用則有因字音而補以中終聲者，如孔子ㅣ魯ㅅ사〯ᄅᆞᆷ之類.

諺語平上去入，如활為弓而其聲平，돌〯為石而其聲上，갈〮為刀而其聲去，붇〮為筆而其聲入之類.

凡字之左，加一㸃為去聲，二㸃為上聲，無㸃為平聲，而文之入聲，與去聲相似.

諺之入聲無㝎，或似平聲，如긷為柱，녑為脅. 或似上聲如낟〯為穀.

깁〯為繒.

或似去聲，如몯〮為釘，입〮為口之類.

其加㸃則與平上去同.

平聲安而和，春也，萬物舒泰.

上聲和而擧，夏也，萬物漸盛.

去聲擧而壯，秋也，萬物成熟.

入聲促而塞，冬也，萬物閉蔵.

初聲之ㆆ與ㅇ相似，於諺可以通用也.

半舌有軽重二音.

然韻書字母唯一，且國語雖不分軽重，皆得成音.

若欲備用，則依脣軽例，ㅇ連書ㄹ下，為半舌軽音，舌乍附上腭.

ㆍㅡ起ㅣ聲，於國語無用.

兒童之言，𨘢野之語，或有之，當合二字而用，如ᄀᆝᄀᆜ之類，其先縱後橫，與他不同.

訣曰: Summarized
初聲在中聲左上

The initial sounds are written above or to the left of the middle sounds.

挹欲於諺用相同

The (initial sounds of the) characters 挹 and 欲, in our speech, are used interchangeably.

中聲十一附初聲

圓橫書下，右書縱

欲書終聲在何處

If one wants to write the final sound, where should it be placed?

初中聲下接着寫

Below the initial and the middle sound it should be attached and written.

初終合用各並書

When using together initials or finals, each are to be written aside one another,

中亦有合悉自左

And medials too, if such cases exist, are to be written all together from the left.

諺之四聲何以辨

In our speech, how are the four tones distinguished?

平聲則弓上則石

The level tone is that of the character 弓, the rising that of the character 石

刀為去而筆為入

The character 刀 is the parting, and 筆 is entering.

觀此四物他可識

Looking at these four things, other things can be made known.

音因左㸃四聲分

Based on the sound, dots on the left can differentiate the four tones.

一去二上無㸃平

One is parting, two is rising, none is level.

語入無㝎亦加㸃

In our speech, entering tones have no dots of their own but instead added like other tones;

文之入則似去聲

In reading Chinese characters, entering tones are the alike the parting tone.

方言俚語萬不同

As all local dialects and common speech are different,

有聲無字書難通

Whenever there existed sounds for which there were no characters to write had made communication difficult.

一朝制作侔神工

(However,) one morning, a work of divine craftsmanship was made,

大東千古開朦朧

And in the great nation of the East, the darkness of a thousand generations was parted.

有天地自然之聲, 則必有天地自然之文.

As there is natural speech in this world, there must be natural writing in this world.

所以古人因聲制字, 以通萬物之情, 以載三才之道, 而後世不能易也.

Following this, old men have made characters bound by sound, contained within them the nature of all matter within the (which is to say the paths of the three elements ), and this is a matter that cannot be changed by future generations.

要皆各隨所處而安, 不可强之使同也.

To the needs of each adherence brings ease, therefore it is impossible to force everyone into conformity.

However, as it uses Chinese characters, there are annoyances and limitations.

非但鄙陋無稽而已, 至於言語之間, 則不能達其萬一焉.

It is howevermore also superficial and baseless, and in modern communication, it is unable to communicate even the most simple things.

癸亥冬, 我殿下創制正音二十八字, 略揭例義以示之, 名曰訓民正音.
