대표훈

Korean

Sino-Korean word from 代表訓, from 代表 (“representative”) + 訓 (“reading”).

Examples
The character 之 (zhī) generally has a Literary Chinese grammatical function, but its 대표훈 (代表訓, daepyohun) is 갈 (gal, “to go”), after a relatively uncommon verbal meaning of the word.

(SK Standard/Seoul) IPA^(key): [ˈtɛ(ː)pʰjoβun] ~ [ˈte̞(ː)pʰjoβun]
Phonetic hangul: [대(ː)표훈/데(ː)표훈]
- Though still prescribed in Standard Korean, most speakers in both Koreas no longer distinguish vowel length.
