Hangul syllable Dyuh

It joins initial ㄷ, vowel ㅠ, and final cluster ㅀ. Its full jamo decomposition is ᄃ + ㅠ + ᆶ: a leading consonant, a vowel, and a trailing jamo for that cluster. “Dyuh” is the algorithmic label in Unicode’s name, not a Korean translation. The block contributes one syllable inside Korean spelling; the surrounding word supplies the lexical meaning.

Hangul is an alphabet: its letters, called jamo, are arranged into blocks that represent syllables. The final consonant or consonant cluster in a syllable is its coda; here, ㅀ fills that role.

Hangul’s creation project is tied to King Sejong in 1443, and its explanatory Hunminjeongeum book appeared in 1446. It let Korean be written more directly than older systems that adapted Chinese characters to Korean, including Idu, Hyangchal, and Gugyeol. Hangul appeared in books and personal letters while Hanja (Chinese characters used in Korean) remained central in elite and official writing; wider official use of Hangul began in the late nineteenth century. A possible connection to Phags-pa, a Mongolian imperial script, is a hypothesis, not settled descent.

How do I type 듛?

Use a Korean two-set input method and enter E, B, F, G.

On the Korean two-set keyboard layout called Dubeolsik, checked as of 2026-09-13, E produces ㄷ, B produces ㅠ, F produces ㄹ, and G produces ㅎ; the input method combines the last two as ㅀ. If Korean input is off, those keys produce Latin letters. The order is initial consonant, vowel, then final cluster.

A text path may show the same syllable as separate jamo. Unicode’s canonical decomposition form, NFD, represents Hangul blocks as jamo; its composition form, NFC, can join a valid sequence back into one block. A font may draw the block differently without changing the character.
