Hangul syllable Ddyalt

Hangul writes a syllable by arranging its letters into one block. Here the parts are the tense consonant ㄸ, written as a doubled form of ㄷ, the vowel ㅑ, and the ending cluster ㄾ (ㄹ + ㅌ).

In Unicode’s decomposed form, the individual Hangul letters (jamo) are ᄄ + ᅣ + ᆴ; their keyboard-facing forms are ㄸ + ㅑ + ㄾ. The Unicode label “Ddyalt” is assembled from component labels, not translated from a Korean word.

This block inherits Hangul’s history

Hangul was created in 1443; the 1446 book Hunminjeongeum explained the writing system’s purpose and principles. Hangul gave Korean speakers a way to write their language directly, since Chinese characters did not fit Korean sounds well.

Hangul appeared in Buddhist publications and later in Confucian works; it spread into letters and everyday labels. It became Korea’s national writing system in 1894, lost that status under Japanese rule in 1910, and continued to be standardized after liberation from Japanese rule in 1945. Those milestones mark changes in the script’s public role.

How do I type 땵?

Use a Korean input method that composes Hangul syllables.

Enter ㄸ, then ㅑ, then final ㄹ followed by ㅌ; the input method combines the last pair into ㄾ.

Fonts can change a block’s proportions and details; Unicode’s reference shapes are examples, not rules. A different drawing is still the same encoded character.
