낈 is one Korean Hangul syllable block, with initial ㄲ, vowel ㅣ, and final cluster ㄽ . In Korean text it contributes one syllable; before a vowel, its final ㅅ can move into the next block. A Korean 2-set (dubeolsik) keyboard IME assembles it from four keystrokes.

Text symbol

What 낈 means

It contributes one syllable to a Korean word; context supplies the word. Its Hangul parts, called jamo, are ㄲ (a tense k), ㅣ (the vowel in “see”), and final ㄽ . At a pause or before a consonant, ㄽ is pronounced as ㄹ; before a vowel, ㅅ can start the next syllable.

A 1443 court record describes Hangul’s creation, and the 1446 book Hunminjeongeum explains the writing system. Earlier ways to write Korean, including Idu, Gugyeol, and Hyangchal, adapted Chinese characters to Korean and were cumbersome to use. Hangul offered a more direct way to write Korean; it also appeared in Buddhist and Confucian publications, practical guides, and everyday reading and writing.

A plain Hangul syllable; its ending ㄽ is a final consonant cluster.

The final ㄽ is ㄹㅅ, not ㅅ alone.

Why does 낈 split into jamo?

Unicode can represent a Hangul syllable as one block or as its conjoining letters. NFD exposes 낈 as 낈; NFC recombines those letters. An app or font without suitable Hangul shaping may display the jamo separately.

How to type 낈 on a Korean 2-set keyboard
Standard 2-set: ShiftR, L, F, T gives ㄲㅣㄹㅅ; the IME joins final ㄹㅅ as ㄽ.

If a vowel follows, an IME may move final ㅅ into the next block; use Space or punctuation to finish 낈 first.
