What 뗰 means
By itself, 뗰 is a syllable; its word meaning depends on context.
Unicode breaks the block into ᄄ + ᅧ + ᆿ; on a Korean 2-set keyboard, the same parts are entered as ㄸ + ㅕ + ㅋ. Jamo are letters that combine into Hangul syllable blocks. The generated Unicode label DDYEOK joins the component names; it labels the syllable, not a Korean word.
The Sejong Sillok, a royal chronicle, records Hangul's creation; Hunminjeongeum, an explanatory book about the script, followed. Hangul was designed to let people who had not learned Chinese characters write Korean speech. It first coexisted with Chinese-character writing; women at court and Buddhist communities helped spread it, and commercial novels made its square blocks familiar in late Joseon, a Korean dynasty. These milestones describe Hangul, not the first appearance of this individual syllable.
