Sino-Korean word from 上院議員, from 上院 (“senate; upper house”) + 議員 (“member of a parliament or assembly”).
Pronunciation[edit]
- (SK Standard/Seoul) IPA(key): [ˈsʰa̠(ː)ŋwʌ̹nɰiwʌ̹n]
- Phonetic hangul: [상(ː)워늬원]
- Though still prescribed in Standard Korean, most speakers in both Koreas no longer distinguish vowel length.
