Jason Tran please.

Is there an alphabet in Korean? If somebody asked me to translate their name, unless I have a meaning, I wouldn't be able to do it, unless their name sounds like something.

Yes, there is a "alfabet" or a "collection of sounds". Please take a look at my "Hangul Demystified" Thread and learn all about it:P Hangul Demystified - Learn Hangul

Tran... U from Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia, Thailand or Myanmar? (I know Tran is a family name down there:P )
