Hangul Syllable Heoc

10720/11172

헟 is a syllable block in Hangul, the Korean writing system, made from ㅎ, ㅓ, and ㅊ. The word around it supplies meaning; Unicode’s label “heoc” joins the component names rather than translating a Korean word.

Text symbol

What 헟 means

It represents one Korean syllable, not a translated word.

The letters in 헟 are ㅎ, ㅓ, and ㅊ: ㅎ begins the block, ㅓ is its vowel, and ㅊ closes it. Unicode’s label “heoc” joins the letters’ short names; it does not translate a Korean word.

Under King Sejong, Hangul took shape in 1443; a 1446 guide explained its design and how letters form syllable blocks. Korean writing before 1443 used Chinese characters and methods adapted from them; Hangul let people write Korean directly. The Joseon kingdom made it official in 1894. During Japanese rule in Korea, Hangul was officially banned, but people continued using it. After 1945, it was presented as a foundation of Korean cultural identity.

Why is 헟 a box on my screen?

fsymbols draws rare signs with its own fonts, so they show here even where your device has none. An app or website without such a font shows an empty box (□) or a question mark instead. Turn our fonts off to see each sign as your device draws it by itself: a box here means a box in your chats and documents too.
