Hangul syllable Cyaelg

Read 첅 as a syllable block, not a word.

Its structure is initial consonant ᄎ, vowel ᅤ, and final consonant cluster ᆰ. The last cluster is formed from ㄹ followed by ㄱ.

Hangeul's creation is first recorded in 1443. The 1446 Hunminjeongeum, a text explaining the alphabet's purpose and principles, described how it works. Hangeul later appeared in translated religious and practical texts, letters, petitions, and everyday records. That history belongs to the writing system; the parts above explain how 첅 is built.

How do you type 첅?

Enter ㅊ, ㅒ, ㄹ, then ㄱ on a Korean 2-set keyboard.

The input method joins those keystrokes into 첅; the last two form final cluster ㄺ. The block may redraw as each part arrives, so a temporary partial form is normal.

Some text tools store the decomposed sequence 첅 instead of one block. Unicode normalization called NFC joins the component letters into 첅; NFD splits them apart again. The stored sequence changes, but the text remains canonically equivalent.
