U+ADD1 "귑" Hangul Syllable Gwib Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
귑
U+ADD1 "귑" Hangul Syllable Gwib is a precomposed South Korean character from the modern Hangul syllable block, representing the phonetic syllable "gwib" which combines the initial consonant "ㄱ" (g), the medial vowel "ㅟ" (wi), and the final consonant "ㅂ" (b). While not a common word in contemporary Korean, this syllable could theoretically appear in compound words or foreign transliterations, but it is rarely used in standard vocabulary compared to more frequent Hangul syllables. Its existence in Unicode ensures consistent digital representation for all possible phonetic combinations in the Korean writing system, including those that are obscure or rare.
