U+1194 "ᆔ" Hangul Jungseong Yu-I Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+1194 "ᆔ" Hangul Jungseong Yu-I is a modern Hangul vowel that represents the diphthong sound formed by combining the vowels "yu" (ㅠ) and "i" (ㅣ), resulting in a pronunciation similar to the English "yui" or "üi," as heard in words like the Korean for "gratitude" (고마움). This character is used as a medial vowel in the Korean writing system, forming syllables when placed between an initial consonant and an optional final consonant. It is notably a product of the early 20th century standardization of Hangul, reflecting unique vowel harmony and phonological rules in the Korean language. The character can be visually represented in modern typography, but its use has declined in contemporary Korean, appearing mainly in older texts or specialized linguistic contexts.
