Hangul Syllable Ssus

6264/11172

쑷 is a Hangul syllable, pronounced roughly “ssut” (a tight s, “oo” as in “moon,” then a clipped t). In a Korean word or name it contributes a sound, while the whole word supplies the meaning. A Korean input method editor (IME) assembles it from jamo, Hangul’s individual letter components.

What 쑷 means

As of 2026-09-13, 쑷 has no established standalone meaning in Korean.

The first documentary record of Hangul dates to 1443; the 1446 Hunminjeongeum was a book introducing the script and its letters. During the Joseon dynasty and modern Korea, Hangul’s public role shifted: it spread through private letters, novels, and teaching materials while Hanja (Chinese characters used in Korean writing) remained official, then gained national-script status.

Hangul’s design has been compared with Phags-pa, a script from the 13th century: some letter shapes resemble one another, but whether the scripts are historically connected is debated.

What should you do if someone sends 쑷?

Ask what word or name they meant. A message containing only 쑷 gives too little Korean context to decode; the syllable’s sound is not a complete message on its own.

Neutral as part of a Korean word; isolated, it can look like a stray syllable.

Alone, it gives too little context to infer tone.

Why does 쑷 split into jamo?

Unicode normalization can store Hangul in equivalent forms: NFC keeps 쑷 as one precomposed syllable block, while NFD expands it into jamo, Hangul’s individual letter components. Both represent the same syllable. Fonts can draw the block differently without changing the character.
