Hangul Syllable Toeng

툉 is a syllable block built from three Hangul letter positions. The initial consonant is ㅌ, the vowel is ㅚ, and the final consonant is ㅇ. These letters represent speech sounds; together they form one Korean syllable, while the surrounding word supplies lexical meaning.

Hangul's creation was announced in 1443, and its explanatory book, Hunminjeongeum, was published in 1446. The writing system was designed to record Korean speech with letters for speech sounds. Its square syllable blocks also let Hangul sit alongside Hanja, Chinese characters used in Korean writing; over time, Hangul became the main script for Korean.

The same syllable can be represented as the jamo sequence 툉. Historical Hangul also uses jamo sequences for syllables without a modern precomposed block.

How do I type 툉?

On a Korean IME, type the parts in order. On the standard Dubeolsik two-set layout, press x for ㅌ, then h and l to form ㅚ, then d for ㅇ; the input method assembles 툉.

If Latin keys remain on screen, switch to Korean input; if the letters stay separate, that app may not be composing Hangul. Unicode can represent this syllable as one precomposed block or as 툉, and fonts may arrange the components differently inside the square cell without changing the syllable.
