U+117C "ᅼ" Hangul Jungseong Eo-Eu Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
ᅼ
U+117C "ᅼ" Hangul Jungseong Eo-Eu is a rarely used modern vowel glyph in the Korean Hangul script, representing a compound medial sound formed by combining the vowels "eo" (ㅓ) and "eu" (ㅡ). Part of the Hangul Jamo Extended-A block, it is primarily employed in historical or linguistic contexts to denote a specific phonetic merger or variation in certain dialects or older transcriptions rather than in standard contemporary Korean writing. This character functions as a jungseong, or syllable nucleus, and must be combined with an initial consonant jamo to form a complete Hangul syllable block.
