U+1164 "ᅤ" Hangul Jungseong Yae Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+1164 "ᅤ" Hangul Jungseong Yae is a vowel component used in the Korean writing system Hangul, representing the medial sound "yae" as in the English word "yay." This character is one of the Jungseong, or medial vowels, that combine with initial consonants and optional final consonants to form complete Hangul syllables. Historically a separate character in the old Hangul standard for compatibility with initial consonants, it is now primarily used as part of modern syllable blocks, such as in the syllable ᅤ (yae) where it appears alone or in combination with other jamo. Its shape derives from the simple vertical line for "i" and the short horizontal stroke for "ae", reflecting the phonetic composition of the diphthong it represents in Korean.
