What 옅 means
Its sense changes with the noun: color can be pale, while sound or smell is faint.
옅 is the stem of 옅다; 다 marks its dictionary form. It appears before nouns in forms like 옅은 색 (“pale color”).
In 1447, 녙다 appears in Seokbo sangjeol, an early Hangul Buddhist text. Before Hangul, Korean also used Chinese-character systems adapted for Korean, including Idu, Gugyeol, and Hyangchal. Hangul was designed to make Korean easier to learn and write.
