Hangul syllable Cilt

It is one Hangul syllable block, not a complete Korean word.

A Korean keyboard or input method (IME) can compose it from ㅊ, ㅣ, and final ㄾ, the consonant cluster ㄹ + ㅌ. That recipe shows how the syllable is assembled; it does not translate it.

In a Korean word or name, 칥 supplies one syllable and the surrounding spelling gives the word's meaning. Outside that setting, treat it as a character lookup or test string.

Why are Korean letters grouped into blocks?

Each block gathers the sounds of one Korean syllable.

Hangul was created in 1443 and promulgated in 1446. Korean writing had long used Chinese characters; Hangul was designed to represent Korean speech with its own phonetic system. Its square blocks combine an initial consonant, a vowel, and, when present, a final consonant—so 칥 follows that pattern.

How do I type 칥?

Use a Korean input method to enter its three parts.

Enter ㅊ, then ㅣ, then final ㄾ. If your layout builds final clusters step by step, enter ㄹ followed by ㅌ.

If 칥 appears as a box, the font may lack this syllable; the stored text can still be correct.
