Hangul Syllable Ddaelp

Read it as one Korean syllable, not a full word. Hangul blocks combine letters called jamo: here ㄸ is the initial consonant, ㅐ the vowel, and ㄿ the final consonant cluster. The Korean word around it tells you how the syllable functions and what it means.

Hangul was developed in Joseon, the Korean kingdom of the time, to represent Korean speech systematically.

Hunminjeongeum is the name associated with Hangul's new writing system: its earliest record is dated 1443, and an explanatory book followed in 1446. Modern Korean spelling rules grew from a 1933 draft and were partly revised in 1988.

How do I type 땚?

Enter its jamo in a Korean input method. Jamo are the letters used to build Hangul syllable blocks. Enter ㄸ, then ㅐ, then ㄿ; Korean IME software assembles them into 땚. Key positions vary by keyboard layout, so the sequence is more useful than a fixed key-by-key recipe.

With a Unicode input method, enter U+B55A as the code point. During composition or text normalization, software may show the jamo parts instead of the precomposed block; it is still the same syllable.
