What 렵 means
By itself, 렵 has no fixed word meaning.
The syllable 렵 appears in words whose meaning comes from the whole word: 어렵다 means “difficult,” 가렵다 means “itchy,” and 두렵다 means “afraid.”
Hangeul is the Korean alphabet, designed to make Korean writing easier to learn. Its design dates to 1443; an explanation of its purpose and principles appeared in 1446.
