Abstract :
The English alphabet is employed for inputting English and other Western languages into the Computer. It is also used for many other languages such as the Chinese and Japanese for the same purpose. Since the Alphabet is a phonetic system, it can be said that all computer input is made through phonetics. Although the script system of these languages use commonly the Alphabet, the way of reading them differ one another, and one who read a system may not possibly read the others. A question comes to rise. Can´t there be a unique universal phonetic system commonly applicable to all languages? The IPA, the most logical candidate, would not be accepted for practical reasons. A simple phonetic script system composed of 10 basic consonants, 10 basic vowels and 10 types of intonations is introduced. The system, based on Hangul, can describe the phonetics of virtually any language through the applications of these basics. The proposition is validated through a mobile application program called HUPS, Hangul-based Universal Phonetic System.
