Hangul Syllable Kyih

9380/11172

On a Korean 2-set keyboard (Dubeolsik), type z m l g; the input method combines them into 킣. This Hangul block is built from ㅋ, ㅢ, and ㅎ, so its structure is clear even though the standalone character has no fixed everyday word meaning.

Text symbol

What 킣 means

On a Korean 2-set keyboard, type z m l g in order.

In the Dubeolsik layout, those keys enter ㅋ, ㅡ, ㅣ, and ㅎ. The Korean input method combines ㅡ and ㅣ into the compound vowel ㅢ, then adds ㅎ to complete 킣.

Hangul input methods build syllable blocks as letters arrive, so the preview can change while you type.

What does 킣 mean?

It is a Hangul syllable block with no fixed standalone word meaning.

Hangul writes Korean syllables in compact blocks. In 킣, ㅋ starts the block, ㅢ is its vowel, and ㅎ closes it; ㅢ itself joins ㅡ and ㅣ.

Hangul was devised in 1443 and introduced in 1446 through the Hunminjeongeum, a guide to the new writing system. It was designed to make Korean reading and writing easier for people without a classical Chinese education.

Why does ㅢ sound like ㅣ?

In modern standard Korean, ㅢ after an initial consonant is usually pronounced like ㅣ, as in 희망 (“hope”). The spelling still shows ㅢ.

Why does 킣 look different in fonts?

Fonts can draw the same character differently because Unicode's reference shape is not a required template. A blank box means the font rendering the text lacks a glyph for this character.
