What 횵 means
In a Korean word, the context supplies its meaning.
The 횵 jamo sequence is ㅎ ㅛ ㄾ: an opening consonant, a vowel, and a final consonant cluster. Hangul was designed as a regular way to write Korean speech, using a different system from Chinese characters. A court record from December 1443 is its earliest documented mention; the 1446 Hunminjeongeum, a book explaining the script, records its purpose, principles, sounds, and operation.
Unicode can store the syllable as one assembled block or as separate jamo letters. Normalization can join the letters into a block; some fonts show the two forms alike even though the stored character sequence differs.
How do I type 횵?
Use a Korean IME with the standard two-set Dubeolsik layout.
Press G, Y, F, X in order: ㅎ, ㅛ, ㄹ, ㅌ. The IME combines the last two consonants into final cluster ㄾ and forms 횵.
Neutral as a Korean syllable; its tone comes from the surrounding word.
A lone 횵 gives too little context to infer a sender’s meaning; check the surrounding Korean text.
