To never fight to achieve selfish ends, but to develop might for right.

PRONUNCIATION GUIDE
approximate (sounds vary with what comes before and after)
a = ah, as in father
e = eh, as in let, but with a little bit of "ay" in it
i = ee
o = oh, as in hope (never ah as in hot, for that sound the "a" is used, see above)
u = halfway between "oo" in moon and the u in cut (similar to the "oo" in book)
ae -= halfway between the "i" in like and "ay"
y = the y in yes
NOTE: The k. p, or t at the end of a word should not be heard, they just stop the vowel sound.

 NAMING A TECHNIQUE
Stance tool height (location) (direction) technique is the order used
to name a technique or move whether in English or Korean. The location (front/side/rear) and
direction (forward/backward) is sometimes understood and not necessary to name. In the
beginning it is good practice to name the moves as fully as possible. Later, the names will be
shortened as normal use becomes understood, and then the fuller terms will be used for the less
used and more unusual variations of the moves.
Examples:
Gunnun Sogi Ap Joomuk Chaunde Jirugi = Walking stance forefist middle section punch
Gunnun Sogi Bakkat Palmok Najunde Bakkarat Makki = Walking stance outer forearm low Section outward block
Niun Sogi An Palmok Chaunde Yop Makki = L-stance inner forearm middle section side block
