It's not your job, IM cover this. All IM that i know do that
automatically. Just contiuing typing in order.



ha sim - 하십



ㅎ   -  하  -   핫  - 하시 -
하십

[ㅎ] - [ㅏ] - [ㅅ] -  [ㅣ]  -  [ㅂ]



In above situation, when you type third character - ㅅ -
'Dokeebibool' state occurs.

Maybe you expect '하ㅅ' not '핫'. This problem known
as 'Dokkebibool' -  will-o'-the-wisp.

But you do not must choice whatever for hangul input. IM will do that
thing.



In fact that is only happen in Dubeolsik. Sebeolsik(3bul in scim) do
not has this problem.

I heard that dvorak is more fast and human compitable than qwerty
keyboard in US. Dubeolsik and Sebeolsik has the similar relation(but
not exactly same).



Feel free try Sebulsik. Scim-hangul module support several Sebeolsik
keyboard. and other IM too.

3bul final(391) is good choice generally.

3bul 390 is more compitable with US layout when type special character
in Hangul input.

Other Sebeolsik is for special situation.

This site has Sebeolsik keyboard layout graphic.



First - 3bul final

Second - 3bul 390

Last - 2bul
