Two systems I know of are hangul-syllable and hangul-consonant widely
used in Korea.

  Ga, Na, Da, Ra, Ma,Ba, Sa,.......
  Gi-yeok, Ni-eun, Di-geut, Ri-eul, Bi-eub, Si-eut, .....

BTW, is there any way to 'fine-tune' the list-style in CSS 2 framework
beyond the numbering system? For instance, can I distinguish between the
following two?

  1. ------- (1) -------
  2. ------- (2) -------
  3. -------- (3) -------

P.S. I'm afraid this is clearly off-topic for the unicode list....
