Hangul syllable Dyeogg

It combines an initial consonant, a vowel, and a final consonant.

Hangul is the alphabet used to write Korean; its individual letters are called jamo. Here, ᄃ is the initial consonant, ᅧ the vowel, and ᆩ the final consonant. The Unicode name “Dyeogg” is assembled from their romanized labels; it identifies the syllable rather than translating a Korean word.

Hangul was created under King Sejong, ruler of the Korean Joseon kingdom, in 1443. Before it, written Korean relied on Chinese characters and systems adapted from them, which were difficult to use for recording Korean speech directly. The explanatory book Hunminjeongeum, published in 1446, presented the alphabet’s design: consonants and vowels arranged into syllable blocks.

How do I type 뎎?

On the standard Korean two-set keyboard, press e, u, then Shift+R.

Those keys enter ㄷ, ㅕ, and ㄲ in order; a Korean input method editor (IME) combines them into 뎎.

In Unicode normalization, the decomposed form (NFD) stores this Hangul block as the three jamo 뎎. The sequence represents the same syllable, but raw character-by-character matching can distinguish three characters from one. Normalize both strings the same way when exact matching matters.
