Hangul Syllable Ddeun

When you see 뜬 alone, there is no one-word English equivalent: it can be a form of the Korean verb 뜨다, which can mean to float or rise. The rest of the word or phrase sets the reading: 뜬소문 is a baseless rumor, while 뜬눈으로 밤을 새우다 means staying awake all night.

What 뜬 means

뜬 has no fixed meaning outside its Korean word or phrase.

Hangul was created in the 15th century as a writing system for Korean; its letters are arranged into syllable-sized blocks. 뜬 is one such block, not a separately invented sign.

뜬 can be a form of 뜨다, a Korean verb with several senses. 뜬소문 means a baseless rumor, 뜬구름을 잡다 means to chase an unrealistic idea, and 뜬눈으로 밤을 새우다 means to stay awake all night. These readings belong to the full words and phrases.

How do I type 뜬?

On a Korean 2-set keyboard, press Shift+E, M, then S.

A Korean input method composes those keystrokes into 뜬. If the letters appear separately, enable Hangul composition in the input method.

Neutral as a Korean syllable; the surrounding word or phrase supplies the tone and meaning.
