Hangul syllable Tyup

튶 is a Hangul spelling unit for one Korean syllable. It is built from ㅌ + ㅠ + ㅍ: ㅌ begins the block, ㅠ supplies the vowel, and final ㅍ closes it. That final consonant distinguishes 튶 from the open syllable 튜.

The Hangul system was first documented in 1443; an explanatory manuscript with examples was published in 1446. Hangul was devised to represent Korean speech more directly than Chinese-character writing could and to make written Korean easier to learn.

Before Hangul, systems based on Chinese characters, including Hyangchal, Idu, and Gugyeol, were used to write Korean. Hangul later served translations, religious and practical books, education, and literature, and became the native writing system for Korean.

How do I type 튶?

Type ㅌ, then ㅠ, then ㅍ in a Korean IME.

An input method editor (IME) is keyboard software that combines typed letters into Hangul blocks.

Hangul input follows an order: initial consonant, vowel, then any final consonant. On the standard Dubeolsik layout, the keys are x, b, and v, so xbv produces 튶. These Latin keys mark keyboard positions; they are not the syllable's romanized spelling.

Why does 튶 look different in another font?

The appearance can change with font support; the character does not.

튶 stores its initial consonant, vowel, and final consonant as one precomposed block. The sequence 튶 writes the same syllable as separate Hangul letters (jamo). If a font lacks the single-block glyph, rendering software may position the letters separately, changing their spacing or proportions. That is a font or shaping difference, not a different syllable.
