hangul syllable pod

Hangul syllable Pod

10228/11172

폳 is a Korean syllable whose meaning depends on the word around it; it is not normally a word by itself. It combines the Korean letters (jamo) ㅍ, ㅗ and final ㄷ, which a Korean input method (IME) joins into one block as you type. “POD” is the Unicode syllable-name spelling, not a translation.

What 폳 means

It is a syllable, not a standalone Korean word. 폳 combines the Korean letters (jamo) ㅍ, ㅗ and final ㄷ; its sound contributes to a larger word. “POD” is the Unicode syllable-name spelling, not a translation of the syllable.

Hangul was created in 1443 and officially promulgated in 1446. A guide called 훈민정음 explained how consonants, vowels and final consonants combine into syllables. The script's practical aim was to make Korean easier to write because Chinese characters did not fit the language well.

Hangul was also known by Korean names such as 정음 and 언문. The name 한글 appears in records from the early 1910s and became widely used after 1928. Modern Korean spelling follows a draft from 1933, partly revised in 1988.

How do I type 폳?

Use a Korean input method: enter ㅍ, then ㅗ, then ㄷ.

A Korean input method editor (IME) joins the jamo into a syllable block as you type. If the letters stay separate, switch your active keyboard layout to Korean.

Why does 폳 look different across fonts?

A font changes the drawing, not the character.

Unicode treats 폳 as one Hangul syllable. Fonts can change its stroke details and proportions, while text segmentation keeps the block as one unit.

Why does 폳 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.
