Notes
- A doubled jamo represents the voiced member of the pair (Wikipedia: "In the original Korean alphabet system, double letters were used to represent Chinese voiced consonants...").
- Jieut <ㅈ> /ʨ/ does not exist in Senjecas, so the jamo is assigned the value /ʦ/, with ssangjieut representing the voiced member /ʣ/.
- A twin tieut <ㅌ> does not exist, so the North Korean jamo bansiot <ㅿ> is assigned the value of /ð/. It is pronounced /t/ before a consonant in North Korea.
- A twin kieuk <ㅋ> does not exist, so the last remaining consonant <ㅊ> /ch/ is assigned the value /ɣ/.
- The obsolete consonant <ㅱ>, /w/, from the Chinese rime table is assigned to /m̥/.
- By analogy with <ㅱ>, <ᄛ> is assigned to represent /l̥/.
- Since /ɾ̥/ is paired with /n/ in Senjecas, rieul <ㄹ> is assigned the value /l/.
- Since /ɾ̥/ is paired with /n/ in Senjecas, /n/ as the voiced member of the pair is the doubled consonant.
- The phoneme /n/ is the only one for which I use two jamo, for two reasons. One, there are no syllable blocks with <ㅥ> as the coda. And two, I like the looks of it! Who knows, maybe some of the Sefdaanians used /ŋ/ when the /n/ was a syllable coda!
- Since /j/ never occurs as a coda, there is no need for a jamo for <ȝ>. When <ȝ> is initial, ieung before a vowel is used, e.g., ȝı̋ta, evening 의다.
- Labialization is indicated by using the labialized consonants, e.g., si, 시; swi, 쉬.
- Palatalization is indicated by using the palatalized consonants, e.g., sa, 사; sya, 샤.

Notes
- 1. A long vowel is indicated by a dot <ᆞ> after the jamo, e.g., na̋a̋ȝe, dog, ㅥㅓᆞ예; űűra, craft, 우ᆞ나.
- 2. The "weak vowels" <ĭ> and <ŭ> are only used for reduplication, the perfect tenses of verbs and the comparative of adjectives. Since they are not interchangeable, <ĭ> when the root vowel is front and <ŭ> when the root vowel is back, there is no confusion in their use, so I'm using the same jamo for both, e.g., me̋e̋i, many, 메ᆞ이; mĭme̋e̋i, more, 므메ᆞ이; pűla, divide, 부라; pŭpűla, has divided, 브부라 . The past tenses use the prefix e-, e-pŭpűla, had divided, 에브부라 .
- 3. The letter ae <ㅐ> /æ/ is assigned the value /ɛ/. This sound is used in making compounds to avoid unallowed compound clusters, e.g., ma̋nka, mutilate, 망가; ma̋nkĕra, 망개나, mutilation.
- 4. The jamo <ㅓ> eo /˄/ is reassigned the value /ɔ/.
