Hangul syllable Beut

븥 has no standalone translation; read it within its Korean word.

In Middle Korean, an earlier stage of Korean, 븥다 is a verb form related to modern 붙다, meaning “to stick” or “attach.” Another historical form, 브터, developed into modern 부터, meaning “from.” Those meanings belong to the full word forms; 븥 alone is only one syllable of them.

Where does 븥 come from?

It is one Hangul block built from three letters.

Hangul was created in 1443 and publicly introduced in 1446 as a way to write Korean. Its letters join into syllable blocks with an opening consonant, a vowel, and sometimes an ending consonant. In 븥, the parts are ㅂ, ㅡ, and ㅌ.
