Text symbol

What 꿔 means

It can mean “dream” or “borrow,” depending on the sentence.

Korean has two separate verbs written 꾸다: one means “to dream,” the other “to borrow.” In “꿈을 꿔” (“have a dream”), 꿔 comes from the dreaming verb; in “돈을 꿔서 썼어” (“borrowed money and used it”), it comes from the borrowing verb. The surrounding words tell you which meaning fits.

This syllable's history is part of Hangul's. Hangul's first documented announcement was in 1443, and an explanatory book about the writing system was published in 1446. Hangul was designed to represent Korean speech and show how its sounds are formed. 꿔 is one syllable block made from ㄲ, a consonant letter, and ㅝ, a vowel letter.

How do I type 꿔?

On the standard Korean layout, type ㄱ twice, then ㅜ and ㅓ.

The Korean input method combines those keystrokes into 꿔. Unicode also defines a canonical decomposition—a sequence of equivalent component letters—so software may store the parts while displaying one syllable block.

An informal Korean verb form; the sentence identifies which verb is meant.

Do not assign 꿔 one fixed translation; nearby words distinguish “dream” from “borrow.”

Why does 꿔 show as a box on some devices?

Because that device's fonts have no glyph for it. The character is still correct and still copies correctly — the box is a missing glyph, not a broken character.
