U+11D9 "ᇙ" Hangul Jongseong Rieul-Yeorinhieuh Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
ᇙ
U+11D9 "ᇙ" Hangul Jongseong Rieul-Yeorinhieuh is a syllable-final consonant letter used in the Korean writing system Hangul, specifically representing a composite final consonant cluster pronounced as /l/ followed by a weak or lenis /h/ sound. This codependent character, known as a jongseong, forms the bottom component of a Hangul syllable block and historically reflects a complex coda where the "rieul" (ㄹ) and "yeorinhieuh" (ㅎ) combine to indicate a breathy or aspirated release of the preceding vowel. While obsolete in modern standard Korean, it appears in older written texts or linguistic transcriptions of Middle Korean and dialectal pronunciations, where such consonant clusters were phonologically distinct.
