hangul syllable ggulb

Hangul syllable 꿃

964/11172

꿃 is a Hangul block for one Korean syllable, built from ㄲ, ㅜ, and final cluster ㄼ. On its own, the block shows a syllable but not its role in a word; in a message, treat it as a text fragment or input test unless context says more.

Text symbol

What 꿃 means

It spells one Korean syllable; context supplies its word meaning. Hangul is the Korean writing system, and its blocks group letters into syllables. 꿃 combines initial consonant ㄲ, vowel ㅜ, and final cluster ㄼ.

The two consonants in ㄼ form a compound final, called 겹받침 in Korean.

How did Hangul's syllable blocks develop?

It follows Hangul’s syllable-block design for writing Korean. Hangul was developed under King Sejong to represent Korean speech more directly than Chinese characters could. The first recorded mention of 훈민정음, the original name of the script, appears in the Sejong Sillok, King Sejong’s official chronicle, in 1443; an explanatory book with that name was published in 1446.

꿃 follows the same first-consonant–vowel–final-consonant pattern. Older Korean also has syllables built with obsolete letters; these can be written as sequences of jamo, the individual letters grouped into a Hangul block.

Why does 꿃 show a box?

With a font that lacks this glyph, an app may show a missing-character box. The box is a display fallback, not part of the stored syllable.
