What 꾶 means
It spells a Korean syllable; its parts show sound, not a translation.
The Hangul block 꾶 is assembled from three letters: ᄁ at the start, ᅭ in the middle, and ᇁ at the end. They form an initial-consonant, vowel, final-consonant pattern; the parts show how the syllable is spelled, not a message by themselves.
King Sejong's Korean alphabet was devised in 1443, and its explanatory text, Hunminjeongeum, was published in 1446. It offered an easier way to write Korean than the Chinese-character methods then in use. Older Hangul included additional letters; the 1933 spelling standard left many out of modern orthography. 꾶 uses letters from the modern set, so that history belongs to Hangul generally, not to this syllable alone.
