What 맚 means
It has no fixed meaning outside a Korean word.
맚 combines ㅁ, ㅏ, and ㅄ. Its final ㅄ is a double batchim (겹받침). “Mabs” is Unicode’s algorithmic name for these parts, not a translation. Hangul was devised in 1443; the 1446 Hunminjeongeum guide explained the script.
How is 맚 pronounced?
Alone, its ㅄ ending is an unreleased p.
Close your lips for the p without releasing it. In a Korean word before a vowel-starting syllable, ㅅ may carry over as that syllable’s first sound. “Mabs” is the Unicode name, not a pronunciation guide.
