Talk:Korean yang

Latest comment: 4 years ago by Donald Trung in topic Banknotes table

Great articles! One picky little point... I'm not sure if this is interference from Chinese or from Japanese, but in any case there is no "f" in any Korean romanization. In the Revised Romanization of Korean, which we follow in most cases at Wikipedia, 푼 is pun. -- Visviva 07:15, 14 March 2006 (UTC)Reply

The fault lies with Krause and Mischler's "Standard Catalog of World Coins".

Yes, Krause makes mistakes from time to time, but this one may be an benign mistake. The English word engraved on the coins were actually "FUN". --Chochopk 08:03, 15 March 2006 (UTC)Reply
Hi, Visviva. I just realize that you changed the spelling. Normally I'd like to go with the spelling of what's on the physical form of the currencies. --Chochopk 08:08, 15 March 2006 (UTC)Reply
Aha! I hadn't realized that there was English writing on the currency... I guess fun is fine, then. Sorry! -- Visviva 08:21, 15 March 2006 (UTC)Reply
PS Any chance we could get a picture of those coins here? -- Visviva 08:21, 15 March 2006 (UTC)Reply
I could, but I have to take a picture of the printed catalog (black and white), and send that to you. I understand that there have been reforms of Romanization of Korean. Do you know when did it take place? And does the new Romanization "retro-apply" to terms before the new method? --Chochopk 10:14, 15 March 2006 (UTC)Reply

Revised Romanisation

edit

I see that this article uses Revised Romanisation even when it goes against WP:COMMONNAME. --1.55.196.75 (talk) 07:20, 15 June 2017 (UTC)Reply

Banknotes table

edit

@NewHikaru07:, do you think that you can insert a table for the banknotes of this currency like you've done for Manchukuo yuan here? That way I can check which banknotes still need images on Wikimedia Commons. --Donald Trung (talk) 21:49, 4 October 2019 (UTC)Reply
