hangul syllable maed

Hangul syllable maed

3564/11172

On a Korean keyboard set to 2-Set, type a, o, e to form 맫. It is one syllable block in Hangul, the Korean writing system, built from ㅁ, ㅐ, and ㄷ. It contributes to Korean spelling rather than standing for a separate idea; Unicode can store it as one precomposed block or a sequence of separate Hangul letters.

Text symbol

What 맫 means

Type a, o, e with Korean 2-Set input active. The Korean input method (IME) maps them to ㅁ, ㅐ, and ㄷ, then composes one syllable block.

You see 매 after a and o; e adds final ㄷ and changes it to 맫. If a vowel follows, the IME can move ㄷ to the next syllable.

What does 맫 mean by itself?

It spells one Korean syllable; the word around it supplies its role.

Hangul is the Korean writing system. This block combines initial consonant ㅁ, vowel ㅐ, and final consonant ㄷ. The surrounding Korean spelling tells you what word the syllable contributes to.

Where did 맫 come from?

It follows Hangul’s letter-to-syllable design. Hangul was devised in 1443 and promulgated in 1446; its consonant and vowel letters combine into syllable blocks.

Modern Korean spelling draws on a unified-spelling draft from 1933 and was partly revised in 1988.

Neutral as Hangul spelling; the surrounding Korean word supplies its role.

Questions people ask

2

Why does 맫 change while I type it?

That is normal with Korean 2-Set input. The IME builds the syllable as you type; if a vowel follows, it can move final ㄷ to the start of the next syllable.

Is 맫 the same as 맫?

No—not as a character sequence. 맫 uses three separate Hangul letters, while 맫 is one precomposed syllable block. They may render alike, and Unicode normalization can treat them as equivalent.
