Hangul syllable 삀

It is one Korean syllable, not a complete word by itself. In a Korean word, 삀 contributes a syllable whose reading comes from that word. Hangul forms each block from an opening consonant, a vowel, and sometimes a closing consonant or consonant pair; here they are ㅃ, ㅢ, and ㄽ.

Hangul was made for writing Korean, whose sounds Chinese characters were difficult to represent, and easier learning was a stated aim. Its earliest surviving record is a 1443 entry in Sejong Sillok, a royal chronicle; the 1446 Hunminjeongeum, a guide to the new script, explains its design.

Names for the script included Hunminjeongeum and eonmun before Hangeul became the common name. As of 2026-09-13, 삀 had no established standalone word or chat-sign reading.

How do you type 삀?

Use Korean input and enter the three parts in order. Enter ㅃ, then ㅢ, then ㄽ. The Korean input method assembles the opening consonant, vowel, and final cluster into one block as you type; you are entering letters, not tracing the visible layout.

If the letters stay separate or form another block, check that Korean input is active and that the app supports Hangul composition.

Why does 삀 look different in another font?

Unicode can store it as one block or as separate letters. In decomposed form, 삀 is ᄈ ᅴ ᆳ: the opening consonant, vowel, and final cluster. These component letters are called jamo.

Fonts and apps vary in how they join or display conjoining jamo. If the letters appear apart, that is a display or text-processing difference, not a different syllable.
