Hangul Syllable Geult

518/11172

긅 is a Hangul syllable block combining ㄱ, ㅡ, and the final cluster ㄾ (two consonants). It is a spelling unit, not a message with a built-in meaning; “geult” labels its parts rather than translating a word. A Korean keyboard assembles those parts as you type.

Text symbol

What 긅 means

It is a Hangul block, not a message with a built-in meaning.

It groups initial consonant ㄱ, vowel ㅡ, and final cluster ㄾ (two consonants). Any word meaning comes from the Korean word these parts help spell.

How do I type 긅?

Use the standard Korean two-set keyboard and enter its parts in order.

On that keyboard, r-m-f-x enters ㄱ, ㅡ, ㄹ, ㅌ; the input software joins ㄹ ㅌ into final ㄾ. Stop at r-m-f and you get 글.

The jamo decomposition of 긅 is 긅, three separate characters that compose to the same block. A tool may ask for these jamo separately.

Why does Korean use syllable blocks?

Hangul groups its letters into blocks, one syllable at a time.

King Sejong introduced the system in 1443; the book Hunminjeongeum, published in 1446, explained its purpose and principles. Before it, Idu, Gugyeol, and Hyangchal used Chinese characters to write Korean, a difficult workaround.

Hangul appeared in early Buddhist and later Confucian translations. It became Korea's official national writing system in 1894, and the name Hangeul spread around 1928. These are milestones of the script, not special meanings of 긅.

A written syllable; its role and tone come from the word or message around it.

Does 긅 have a fixed pronunciation?

Not as a word by itself. Korean rules for ending consonants and the next syllable can affect how ㄾ sounds; “geult” labels the spelling parts, not a guaranteed word pronunciation.
