U+113A "ᄺ" Hangul Choseong Sios-Phieuph Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+113A "ᄺ" Hangul Choseong Sios-Phieuph is a precomposed leading consonant cluster used in the Korean Hangul writing system, specifically representing the combination of the consonants Sios (ㅅ) and Phieuph (ㅍ). This character is part of the Hangul Jamo block, which encodes individual or combined jamo letters that were historically used in Korean orthography, though it is not commonly used in modern standard Korean. Its primary function is to denote a syllable-initial consonant sound that blends an alveolar sibilant with a bilabial plosive, allowing for precise representation of phonetic clusters in linguistic or historical texts. As a choseong or initial consonant, it occupies the first slot of a Hangul syllable block, and its inclusion in Unicode supports accurate digital rendering of older or specialized Korean materials.
