U+11C7 "ᇇ" Hangul Jongseong Nieun-Sios Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+11C7 "ᇇ" Hangul Jongseong Nieun-Sios is a composite Hangul Jamo representing a final consonant cluster in the Korean writing system, specifically combining the sounds of Nieun (ㄴ, an alveolar nasal) and Sios (ㅅ, an alveolar fricative). This character is used exclusively in the jongseong or final consonant position within a syllable block, where it functions as a digraph to indicate that a syllable ends with the sequential pronunciation of these two consonants. Historically and in modern Korean orthography, such clusters appear in native Korean words and certain loanword adaptations, though its usage is less common than simpler final consonants. As part of the Hangul Jamo Extended-A block, this character supports precise typographic representation of syllable-final consonant sequences in the Korean alphabet.
