Hangul Syllable Hyuls

11073/11172

흀 is a Korean Hangul syllable block, not a word with a fixed meaning by itself. It forms one syllable from an initial consonant, a vowel, and a final consonant cluster. A Korean IME assembles it from letter inputs, and fonts may draw the same block with different proportions.

Text symbol

What 흀 means

It has no fixed word meaning by itself. The meaning of 흀 comes from the Korean word that contains it. Its Unicode decomposition is ᄒ ᅲ ᆳ: an initial consonant, a vowel, and a final cluster (ㄹ ㅅ). A Korean IME combines those components into one syllable block.

Hangul was created in 1443, and the 1446 Hunminjeongeum manuscript explains its letters, how they combine, and how to use them. The writing system addressed a mismatch between Korean speech and Chinese writing, and it was designed to be teachable.

The script also circulated under names including Hunminjeongeum, jeongeum, eonmun, gukmun, gukseo, and Hangeul. These are names for the writing system, not alternate meanings of 흀. Chinese writing is part of Hangul's historical context; 흀 itself is a Hangul syllable block, not a Chinese ideograph.

How do I type 흀?

Use a Korean two-set keyboard and enter the components in order. Press g for ㅎ, b for ㅠ, f for ㄹ, and t for ㅅ; the final pair joins as ㄽ to form 흀.

A Korean IME may reshape the block as it joins or revises the final consonant. If the jamo remain separate, check that Korean syllable composition is enabled.

Fonts can draw the component strokes, spacing, and proportions differently without changing the underlying character. Hangul syllable blocks stay together at line breaks.
