Text symbol

What 맟 means

It preserves an older Korean verb stem. Middle Korean used 맟- for a verb meaning “finish” or “bring to an end.” A sound change associated with ㅈ reshaped the stem into 마치-. The older form survives only before endings that begin with a consonant, as in 맟다.

The old Korean translation 소학언해 of the Confucian teaching text 소학 contains 마참이니라. It has been analyzed as possibly reflecting 맟-, but the spelling alone does not settle how Middle Korean handled final consonants.

What does 맟 mean when someone sends it?

As of 2026, 맟 has no established chat-reaction meaning by itself. In a sentence, it belongs to 맟다, the marked verb form for finishing something. As of 2026, Korean dictionary guidance lists 맟다 as a shortened form of 마치다 and gives 밤이 맟도록 이야기하다, “talk until night ends,” as an example.

Read the surrounding word before correcting it: 맞 ends in ㅈ and appears in ordinary words for “correct” or “match,” while 맛 ends in ㅅ and means “taste.”

A marked dictionary or historical form; use 마치다 in neutral contemporary Korean.

If it arrives alone, check for a typo of 맞 or a historical quotation.
