do it now.
But in practice, breaking syllables into jamo would make keywords less readable, which goes against Hangul's design goal. And considering how AI-assisted coding works today, fully named descriptive keywords actually reduce errors — LLMs perform better with explicit, unambiguous tokens than with cryptic symbol compositions.
So Han leans toward more descriptive Korean keywords rather than shorter symbolic ones. Readability over brevity.
Interesting direction to think about though — thanks for the question.
Korean has its own pure Korean words (순우리말) as its foundation, and borrowed some Chinese-origin vocabulary on top of that.
Hangul was specifically created so people wouldn't need to learn Chinese characters.
So Han's keywords use native Korean words where possible — it fits the spirit of Hangul itself.
That said, a few things do lean into Korean specifically:
- Method names are real Korean verbs: .추가() (add), .삭제() (delete), .분리() (split)
- Error messages are in Korean
- The REPL prompt is 한> and exit command is 나가기 (literally "go out")
Good question — it pushed me to think about what makes this more than just s/function/함수/g.
Error messages, REPL, LSP hover docs are all in Korean. You can't get that from #define 만약 if.
One distinction though: Han uses actual Korean words, not transliterations. 함수 means "function" in Korean, 만약 means "if" — they're real words Korean speakers already know.
Your example uses transliterations like 펀크 and 아래이 which would look odd to a Korean reader. That difference matters for readability.
