Hangul syllable 쩁

Use a Korean IME to enter its component letters.

Enter the initial consonant, vowel, and final consonant with the input method; it joins them into one square block as you type. These component letters are called jamo, and the block may change while the IME is composing the syllable.

Why does 쩁 look different in fonts?

The character is fixed; fonts can draw its parts differently.

Hangul typefaces fit the component letters into a square syllable block. If a font lacks the precomposed glyph, text shaping may display the letters separately instead. That reflects font support, not a change of character or meaning.

What does 쩁 mean?

By itself, it has no fixed translation or reaction meaning.

In a Korean word, it contributes a syllable; the word and sentence determine what it means.

Hangul's first record dates to December 1443, and a 1446 book explains its writing principles. Hangul appeared in writing that mixed it with Chinese characters before its use widened into public writing in the 18th and 19th centuries.

What influenced Hangul's vowel design?

A 2009 proposal linked Hangul vowel design to the Phags-pa script, another writing system. The proposal concerns the alphabet's design, not this syllable's meaning.
