hangul syllable ggyegs

Hangul syllable ggyegs

788/11172

꼓 is a Hangul syllable block built from ㄲ, ㅖ and final ㄳ. The meaning of 꼓 depends on the Korean word it appears in; alone, it identifies a syllable but not the intended word. The final cluster's sound follows Korean pronunciation rules, and a Dubeolsik (two-set Korean keyboard layout) can compose it from its letters. If it appears as a box, the font may lack this glyph.

Text symbol

What 꼓 means

It is a Korean syllable built from three letters. The parts are ㄲ in the initial position, ㅖ as the vowel, and ㄳ in the final position. The word around it tells you which word this syllable belongs to.

The final ㄳ is a consonant cluster in spelling, so the ㄳ pronunciation changes with the sounds around it. On a Dubeolsik Korean keyboard, the input method combines the jamo (Hangul letter components) as they are entered.

Why does Hangul use blocks?

Hangul groups letters into blocks to write Korean syllables. Its creation was first recorded in 1443. Hunminjeongeum, a text explaining Hangul's purpose and principles, was published in 1446.

Modern Korean spelling is based on a unified draft from 1933. Digital text can also represent the same syllable as a sequence of jamo, the component letters of Hangul.

Questions people ask

2

Does 꼓 have one fixed pronunciation?

No. The final ㄳ is a spelling cluster, and its spoken realization depends on neighboring sounds in Korean. The syllable's name is not a fixed pronunciation guide.

Why does 꼓 show as a box?

A font without this Hangul glyph can display a missing-character box. The text still contains 꼓; the font determines whether it appears.
