Text symbol

What 쉽 means

쉽 is the stem of 쉽다: “easy” or “not difficult.”

In Korean’s ㅂ-irregular pattern, final ㅂ changes before some endings, producing 쉬워요 and 쉬운. 쉽게 means “easily”; -기가 쉽다 means likely or prone.

쉽다 appears in 1447 in 석보상절, a Korean Buddhist text. Hangul, the Korean alphabet, groups letters into syllable blocks: ㅅ starts 쉽, ㅟ is its vowel, and ㅂ ends it.

Why does 쉽 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.
