Unicode Version 17.0
걉
U+AC49 "걉" Hangul Syllable Gyab is a precomposed syllable in the modern Hangul script used for writing the Korean language, specifically formed by combining the initial consonant "ㄱ" (giyeok), the medial vowel "ㅑ" (ya), and the final consonant "ㅂ" (bieup). This character is part of the Hangul Syllables block in Unicode, which encodes all possible combinations of Korean jamo in a single code point for efficient text processing, and it represents the phonetic sound "gyab," though it is not a commonly used word in standard Korean vocabulary. Its inclusion in the Unicode standard ensures that systems can display and handle this syllable correctly in digital text without needing to compose it from individual jamo.
