Hangul syllable Julm

7431/11172

줆 is the Korean noun form of 줄다, “to decrease” or “become less”; it names a decrease or lessening. Hangul builds it from an initial consonant, a vowel, and the final cluster ㄻ. Its lookalike 줌 means “giving,” so the spellings have different meanings.

Text symbol

What 줆 means

It names becoming less or the resulting decrease.

In Korean grammar, 줆 is the noun form of 줄다, “to decrease” or “become less.” It names the process or result, like “a decrease” or “lessening” in English.

Why is 줆 one block?

Hangul writes the syllable’s parts together as one block.

Hangul was created in 1443 and introduced in 1446 in Hunminjeongeum, a text explaining the script’s purpose and design. It offered a way to write Korean more directly than the Chinese-character systems then used for Korean. Earlier methods such as Idu, Gugyeol, and Hyangchal adapted Chinese characters for Korean writing.

This precomposed syllable block combines initial ㅈ, vowel ㅜ, and final cluster ㄻ (ㄹ ㅁ). Unicode also defines an equivalent sequence of Hangul jamo, the script’s consonant and vowel parts.

In a Korean sentence, it is neutral grammar; alone, it reads like a fragment without context.

Do not substitute 줌: it means “giving,” not “decrease.”
