Dear Professor Lewis,
While I am not sure what you specifically mean by 'Middle Korean', HCR
Batang font worked on MS Word manuscripts for my paper ("Reassessing the
Historical Significance of Chung-kuk/Chung-kuo(Zhongguo) 中國 in East
Asian Historiography – Featuring an Analysis of Hunmin chŏng'ŭm 訓民正音")
in inserting chŏng'ŭm 正音 transcription as in the so-called Hunmin
chŏng'ŭm ŏn-hae 訓民正音諺解. It worked for tone marks (聲調) (“·” or “:” on the
left of the letter where applicable) as well.
For your reference, I utilized 어듸메 (https://akorn.bab2min.pe.kr/) for
some of the chŏng'ŭm transcription.
Best regards,
CHUN Jihoon
