Hangul syllable 곈

곈 is a Korean syllable block made from ㄱ, ㅖ, and ㄴ. On its own it does not tell you a word's meaning; read it as part of the Korean word around it.

Text symbol

What 곈 means

Hangul groups each syllable’s sounds into one block. In 곈, ㄱ starts the block, ㅖ is its vowel, and ㄴ closes it.

Hangul was designed for Korean speech, which Chinese characters did not represent easily. The first record is titled Hunminjeongeum and dates to 1443; an explanatory book appeared in 1446.
