Hangul syllable Ryols

3289/11172

룘 is a Hangul syllable block made from ㄹ, ㅛ, and final ㄽ. It has no fixed word meaning alone; a Korean keyboard builds it from those parts.

Text symbol

What 룘 means

Its meaning depends on Korean context. ㄹ begins the block, ㅛ is its vowel, and ㄽ its final consonant cluster.

The Sejong Sillok, a royal court chronicle, records Hangul’s creation in 1443. The 1446 Hunminjeongeum book explains how its letters write Korean speech.

What changed in Hangul over time?

The block design stayed; standard letters changed.

Hangul’s first letter set was larger than today’s. Modern Korean spelling rules were drafted in 1933 and revised in 1988; these dates describe the writing system, not 룘’s origin.

Why does 룘 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.
