What 델 means
Korean context supplies its meaning; alone, it has no fixed message.
In 손을 델 뻔하다, 델 is a form of 데다 (“to get burned”): someone nearly burned a hand.
Hangul blocks combine letters into one syllable: ㄷ opens 델, ㅔ is its vowel, and ㄹ closes it. Hangul was devised in 1443 to write Korean speech; an explanatory book appeared in 1446.
Neutral in Korean writing; context supplies meaning.
A lone 델 can be incomplete.

1Why does 델 show as a box on some devices?
Because that device's fonts have no glyph for it. The character is still correct and still copies correctly — the box is a missing glyph, not a broken character.
