Hangul syllable 죹

7418/11172

To type 죹 as one Korean syllable block, use Korean Hangul input and enter ㅈ, ㅛ, then ㅌ. It is a Korean text character, not an emoji; by itself it does not state a reaction. Its Unicode name describes how the block is assembled, not a word definition.

Text symbol

What 죹 means

Use Korean Hangul input; type ㅈ, ㅛ, then ㅌ. A Korean input method editor (IME) combines these separate Hangul letters, called jamo, into 죹 as you type. If they stay apart, the keyboard or text field may not be composing Hangul.

Fonts can change the shape, proportions, and placement of the three parts inside the square block. That changes its appearance, not the character.

Does 죹 have a word meaning?

Its name describes a syllable, not a dictionary meaning. 죹 combines initial consonant ㅈ, vowel ㅛ, and final consonant ㅌ. Unicode's Hangul syllable name follows those components; the meaning of any Korean word containing it comes from the word as a whole.

Hangul was designed to make writing Korean more accessible when formal literacy relied heavily on Chinese characters, known in Korean as Hanja. A chronicle kept by Korea's royal court records, in late December 1443, the announcement of 28 letters for writing Korean. The Hunminjeongeum, a book explaining the new writing system, was published in the ninth lunar month of 1446.

Neutral in Korean writing; alone, it gives no clear message beyond a syllable fragment.

Read a lone 죹 as text or an input test unless the context makes its role clear.
