Unicode Version 17.0
ㅾ
U+317E "ㅾ" Hangul Letter Sios-Cieuc is a composite consonant from the Hangul alphabet, specifically a digraph that combines the sounds of the initial consonants Sios (ㅅ) and Cieuc (ㅈ). This character, part of the Hangul Compatibility Jamo block, represents a single phoneme used primarily in historical or orthographic contexts within the Korean writing system. In modern Korean, however, it is rarely employed as a standalone letter, as its phonetic value often merges into other sounds or is replaced by distinct combinations of modern jamo.
