Hangul syllable Hwap

What 홮 means

By itself, 홮 does not tell you which Korean word was meant.

Hangul writes Korean in compact syllable blocks. The meaning of 홮 depends on the Korean word around it.

Hangul's documented history begins with a December 1443 record that new letters had been made; the Hunminjeongeum manuscript was reported complete in September 1446. The system was designed to write Korean and widen access to reading and writing. In 1894 it became Korea's official national writing system, after government documents had largely been written in Chinese characters. The Phags-pa script, a square phonetic script created in 1265 and promulgated in 1269 for Mongol rule, is a proposed influence on Hangul's design, not a proven ancestor of 홮.

How do I type 홮?

In Korean 2-set mode, press g, h, k, then v.

On this layout, g enters ㅎ, h k makes ㅘ, and v adds final ㅍ.

The same syllable can be encoded as conjoining letters ᄒ + ᅪ + ᇁ. If software needs the precomposed block, NFC normalization composes the sequence as 홮.

Questions people ask

2

Why did 홮 split into separate letters?

It is the decomposed form. Unicode treats ᄒ ᅪ ᇁ as equivalent to the single block 홮; some software displays those conjoining letters separately.

What does a missing box for 홮 mean?

The font or rendering system lacks a glyph for this character, so it cannot draw it.
