Unicode Version 17.0
ᄣ
U+1123 "ᄣ" Hangul Choseong Pieup-Sios-Tikeut is a leading consonant cluster used in the Korean writing system, representing a compound initial sound composed of the consonants pieup (ㅂ), sios (ㅅ), and tikeut (ㄷ). This character belongs to the Hangul Jamo block of Unicode, which encodes the individual letters that combine to form complete Korean syllables. Historically, this triple consonant cluster appears in archaic or obsolete Korean phonology, often found in older texts or linguistic reconstructions rather than modern standard Korean, where such complex onsets are no longer used. Its inclusion in Unicode ensures that historical and scholarly digital documents can accurately represent the full range of traditional Hangul orthography.
