Text symbol

What 샙 means

It is one sound-bearing syllable, not a standalone word.

Hangul groups letters into syllable blocks. The parts of 샙 are ㅅ (the starting consonant), ㅐ (the vowel), and ㅂ (the final consonant). Read the surrounding Korean syllables to identify the word.

How did Hangul’s syllable blocks begin?

King Sejong devised Hangul in 1443 as an easier-to-learn way to write Korean, which people had been recording with Chinese characters and adaptations of them. The script was first called Hunminjeongeum, “proper sounds for instructing the people”; an explanatory book with that title appeared in 1446.

Why does 샙 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.
