Text symbol

What 첆 means

It contributes one syllable to its Korean word. CYAELM names its three joined Hangul letters (jamo): ᄎ starts it, ᅤ is the vowel, and ᆱ closes it.

Hangul was created in 1443 to make Korean easier to write; an explanatory book appeared in 1446. Classical Chinese writing remained important for centuries. A 1894 decree made Hangul the basis for official documents but allowed mixed writing. As of 2025, proposed influence from Chinese seal script or Mongol-era Phags-pa remained disputed.

Why can 첆 appear as separate jamo?

Unicode’s composed form (NFC) stores 첆 as one syllable; its decomposed form (NFD) stores the equivalent joined jamo. A Hangul-capable renderer displays both as the same syllable.
