hangul syllable hum

Hangul syllable hum

10965/11172

훔 alone has no single everyday Korean meaning; read it within the word or phrase. 훔치다 can mean “steal” or “wipe”; Korean Buddhist mantras use 훔 to render Sanskrit hūṃ.

Text symbol

What 훔 means

The surrounding word or phrase determines 훔’s meaning.

Those senses belong to the full verb 훔치다, not the syllable alone. A 2018 study pairs 아 and 훔 in 아훔, marking an open-mouth beginning and closed-mouth ending.

훔 is one Hangul syllable block

훔 combines an initial consonant, vowel and final consonant. Hangul was devised in 1443 to support Korean writing; the Hunminjeongeum text dates to 1446. Unicode normalization represents the same syllable as three jamo (Korean letter components).

A lone 훔 needs context.
