Actually it's more because they do not have certain ending sounds, especially not sharp ending or connecting consonants. So they have to add these consonants separately and, because in Hangul a starting consonant must be followed by a vowel, add their least voiced vowel ("ㅡ", romanized: "eu") to it. Thus "Protoss" becomes "프로토스" ("peu-ro-to-seu") which sounds to us like "Protossuh" when they pronounce it. | ||

It's very similar to Japanese, which is also well known for having those ending vowel sounds when pronouncing foreign loanwords. The linguistic term for it is a "moraic languange", where the basic phonology of the language are mora. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mora_(linguistics) | ||
