Hangul syllable Bbweoss

Use Korean input and enter ㅃ, ㅝ, then ㅆ.

A Korean input method combines Hangul Jamo—the consonant and vowel letters—into the single syllable block 뿼. In the character’s Unicode breakdown, the parts are an initial consonant, a vowel, and a final consonant.

Hangul fonts can shape the strokes and proportions differently inside the block. The drawing can change without changing which character it is.

What does 뿼 mean on its own?

It is one syllable block; Korean text around it supplies its role.

The block occupies one syllable position in Korean spelling. The spelling and sentence around it show how to understand it.

Hangul was devised in 1443 and officially promulgated in 1446. Its original name, Hunminjeongeum, means “Correct Sounds for the Instruction of the People”; the explanatory work about the letters was written in literary Chinese. A Korean-language version of its text appeared in 1459 at the start of Worin Seokbo, a Buddhist book combining a life of the Buddha with Buddhist verse. The writing system was meant to fit Korean sounds and grammar, be learnable by ordinary people, and help with learning neighboring languages. This history belongs to Hangul, not to this syllable alone.
