Hangul syllable Teulb

It is a Korean syllable block, not a message by itself. Hangul letters, called Jamo, are arranged into blocks; this one has initial ㅌ, vowel ㅡ, and final cluster ㄼ. A Korean input method joins those pieces into one syllable.

Hangul was devised under King Sejong to write Korean in a system ordinary people could learn. A first record of the script under the name 훈민정음 is dated 1443; a book explaining its design appeared in 1446. Those dates belong to the script, not to the first use of this exact combination.

Why can 틃 look different?

It can be stored as one block or as three encoded Jamo. Unicode’s decomposed sequence is 틃: the separate Hangul letters ᄐ, ᅳ, and ᆲ.

Text normalization, a processing step that joins or separates equivalent sequences, can convert between 틃 and 틃. Fonts can also draw the block with slightly different proportions; the character itself remains the same.

How do I type 틃 on a Korean keyboard?

On the common Korean 2-set layout, type xmfq. With Korean input active, x, m, f, and q enter ㅌ, ㅡ, ㄹ, and ㅂ in order; the input method joins final ㄹ and ㅂ as ㄼ to form 틃.

Other keyboard layouts or phone keyboards may use different keys or taps. Enter the same Korean letters in the same order.
