U+ACDA "곚" Hangul Syllable Gyej Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
곚
U+ACDA "곚" Hangul Syllable Gyej is a precomposed syllable in the modern Hangul script used for writing the Korean language. It represents the sound "gyej," formed from the initial consonant "기역" (g), the medial vowel "예" (ye), and the final consonant "지읒" (j), though this particular syllable is extremely rare or obsolete in contemporary Korean vocabulary. As part of the Hangul Syllables block, which encodes all possible combinations of Korean letters, "곚" serves primarily as a typographic convenience for legacy or specialized text, allowing a single code point to represent the full syllable instead of requiring separate initial, medial, and final characters.
