```rust extern crate hangeul;
fn main() { // literally: pikachu transliterated let subject = "피카츄";
// Korean marks the topic of the sentence with a post position
// particle: 이 follows consonants, and 가 follows vowels.
let post_position = match hangeul::ends_in_consonant(subject).unwrap() {
true => "이",
false => "가"
};
// -> A wild pikachu has appeared!
let sentence = format!("야생의 {}{} 나타났다!", subject, post_position);
println!("{}", sentence); // 야생의 피카츄가 나타났다!
// get_lead is an alias of get_choseong, to get the first character
// of a Hangeul syllable.
let sentence_in_choseong = sentence.chars()
.map(|c| hangeul::get_lead(&c).unwrap_or(c))
.collect::<String>();
println!("{}", sentence_in_choseong); // ㅇㅅㅇ ㅍㅋㅊㄱ ㄴㅌㄴㄷ!
} ```
