Hangul Syllable Wanh

6727/11172

왆 is a Hangul syllable block; any word-level meaning comes from the Korean word it belongs to. It combines the initial ㅇ, vowel ㅘ, and final cluster ㄶ, which a Korean input method can compose from its parts. Hangul's history began centuries before Unicode.

What 왆 means

As of 2026, 왆 has no established standalone meaning.

Read it as one Korean syllable block made from three jamo (letter parts): ᄋ is the silent initial, ᅪ the vowel, and ᆭ the final cluster. The surrounding Korean word gives the block its role.

How did Hangul develop?

Hangul was designed to represent Korean speech in syllable blocks.

It was created in 1443 and officially promulgated in 1446. Formal Korean writing had relied heavily on Hanja, Chinese characters used in Korean texts; Hangul joined the initial, vowel, and final letter parts into syllable blocks. Historical names include 훈민정음 and 언문; 한글 later became the script's general name. Hangul was sometimes disparaged beside Hanja, and its standing changed over time.

It is a Korean spelling unit, usually read as part of a word or phrase.

Why does 왆 split into jamo?

That comes from Unicode normalization. NFD separates a Hangul block into its jamo; NFC recombines the parts into one block when possible. Both forms represent the same normalized Korean text.

Why is 왆 a box on my screen?

fsymbols draws rare signs with its own fonts, so they show here even where your device has none. An app or website without such a font shows an empty box (□) or a question mark instead. Turn our fonts off to see each sign as your device draws it by itself: a box here means a box in your chats and documents too.
