U+11EB "ᇫ" Hangul Jongseong Pansios Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+11EB "ᇫ" Hangul Jongseong Pansios is a complex final consonant character used in the Hangul script for writing Korean, specifically representing the sound of a syllable-final tense alveolar fricative, similar to the modern Korean letter "ㅆ" but historically distinct in its application during the Middle Korean period. This character belongs to the Hangul Jamo block of Unicode and functions as a "jongseong," or final consonant, appearing at the bottom of a syllable block. Its name "Pansios" reflects its historical role as a doubled or stronger version of the basic fricative sound. While no longer commonly used in modern standard Korean orthography, it remains important for linguistic scholars and in the accurate representation of historical texts and dialectal transcriptions.
