Hangul Syllable Yeob

Text symbol

What 엽 means

It is a syllable, not a word on its own.

Read yeop, 엽 appears in Sino-Korean compounds built on the Hanja 葉, which is linked to leaf. The everyday Korean word for leaf is 잎, while 엽서 (葉書) means postcard.

A lone 엽 is fragmentary; look for the surrounding word.

Check the surrounding word before translating it as “leaf.”
