hangul syllable ssak

Hangul syllable 쌐

5905/11172

Enter ㅆ, then ㅏ, then ㅋ in a Korean IME; it combines them into the Hangul syllable 쌐. By itself, it does not identify a word: surrounding Korean text supplies that context.

Text symbol

What 쌐 means

Enter ㅆ ㅏ ㅋ in a Korean IME.

Korean input method editors (IMEs) combine jamo—the Korean letters used to build syllable blocks—into 쌐. Unicode text can store the composed block or its decomposed jamo sequence. If the jamo remain separate, use Unicode NFC normalization, the standard composed form, to reassemble them.

What does 쌐 mean on its own?

Its word-level meaning depends on Korean context.

Hangul was created to make Korean writing easier to learn for people who had not studied the classical Chinese characters used in official texts. The Sejong Sillok, a royal chronicle, mentions Hangul in 1443; Hunminjeongeum, a guide to the new letters, appeared in 1446. Those dates describe the script, not this exact syllable.

Acceptance was uneven; Japanese colonial rule restricted Hangul's use, and it became the national script after 1945.

Someone sent me 쌐—what does it mean?

It may be a fragment; ask for the surrounding Korean text.

A 2016 regional-dialect report records 쌐 within the local forms 쌐꾼 and 품쌐. In those forms, the block is part of a word; the surrounding syllables provide its role.

Neutral as a Korean text character; its word-level role depends on Korean context.
