Text symbol

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.

Why does 맚 show as a box on some devices?

Because that device's fonts have no glyph for it. The character is still correct and still copies correctly — the box is a missing glyph, not a broken character.
