붷

hangul syllable bweoh

Hangul syllable Bweoh

붷 is one Hangul syllable block. By itself, it does not tell you what message the sender intended; in a Korean word, neighboring syllables provide context. If someone sends it alone, ask what they meant.

What 붷 means

It is a Hangul syllable block; context gives it a word-level role.

The block combines three Hangul letter pieces: ㅂ starts it, ㅝ is its vowel, and ㅎ closes it. In a Korean word, the surrounding syllables identify the word.

Hangul was created in 1443 and explained in 1446 in Hunminjeongeum, a guide to a writing system intended to make Korean easier to read and write without first learning Chinese characters. Earlier names for the script included 정음, 언문, 반절, 국문, and 국서; 한글 became widespread as its name in the early 20th century. These names trace the script’s history, not a separate meaning for 붷.

How do I type 붷?

Use a Korean input method to enter ㅂ, ㅝ, then ㅎ.

Select a Korean keyboard layout, then enter ㅂ, ㅝ, and ㅎ in that order; the input method composes them into 붷.

Unicode can also represent the syllable with three Hangul letters designed to compose into a block: 붷. Hangul-aware text layout can display that sequence as one block. The visually similar separate forms ㅂㅝㅎ may stay apart.

Neutral inside Korean writing; opaque as a message by itself.

A lone 붷 leaves the sender’s intent unclear; don’t assign it a reaction without context.

ㅂㅝㅎ
These spell out the three letter pieces separately; 붷 is one precomposed block. They are related forms, but not the same character sequence.
붸
Hangul Syllable Bwe
It shares ㅂ and ㅝ but has no final ㅎ, so it is a different syllable.

Questions people ask

Why does 붷 appear as a box?

A box usually means the active font or text renderer cannot display this syllable; an input method may also have left the keystrokes uncommitted. It does not indicate a different character meaning.
