Hangul Syllable Dilt

It is one Korean syllable block; its word supplies the meaning. Hangul is the Korean writing system: consonants and vowels combine inside square-shaped syllable blocks. 딡 contains initial ㄷ, vowel ㅣ and final cluster ㄾ. Unicode’s label “dilt” names that structure; it is not an English translation or chat abbreviation.

Hangul was designed under King Sejong to make writing Korean accessible to more people. Hunminjeongeum, the guide introducing its letters and how they combine, was published in 1446. A unified Korean spelling draft appeared in 1933, and spelling rules were revised in 1988. South Korean usage commonly calls the script Hangeul; North Korean usage calls it Chosŏn'gŭl.

How do I type 딡?

A Korean two-set IME composes it from four keystrokes. On a standard Korean two-set keyboard, press e, l, f, x: these keys enter ㄷ, ㅣ, ㄹ and ㅌ, which the input method combines into 딡. If the final letter remains pending, press Space or punctuation to commit the block.

딡’s canonical decomposed sequence is 딡: three Hangul letter components held separately. Unicode NFC (Normalization Form C) can join them into the precomposed syllable. A font can shape the block differently inside its square cell without changing the character.
