U+AD0B "괋" Hangul Syllable Gwalh Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
괋
U+AD0B "괋" Hangul Syllable Gwalh is a precomposed syllable in the modern Korean writing system, representing the sound "gwalh." It is formed from the initial consonant "ㄱ" (g), the medial vowel "ㅘ" (wa), and the final consonant "ㅀ" (lh), a double consonant that acts as a final consonant cluster. This syllable is part of the Hangul Syllables block in Unicode, which encodes all possible combinations of initial, medial, and final jamo (the building blocks of Hangul) to facilitate efficient text processing. While "괋" is a valid graphic unit, it is rarely used in standard Korean vocabulary, as "ㅀ" (lh) final clusters are uncommon in everyday words, making this syllable appear in only a few specialized or historical linguistic contexts.
