Text symbol

What 맼 means

맼 contributes one syllable; the surrounding word gives it meaning.

It is a Hangul block assembled from three jamo, the script's letters: initial ᄆ, vowel ᅢ, and final ᆿ.

Hangul was designed to let ordinary people write spoken Korean without first mastering Chinese characters. The script was completed in 1443, and its explanatory manuscript was published in 1446.

How do I type 맼 in a Korean IME?

With a Korean IME, enter ㅁ, ㅐ, then ㅋ.

Unicode's decomposed spelling is 맼, the same syllable in three jamo. Normalization can convert between that sequence and the single precomposed block.

Why can 맼 look different in another font?

The active font determines the shape of Hangul components.

Fonts can change their outlines, size, or placement inside the syllable block. That rendering difference does not change the character.
