U+AE26 "긦" Hangul Syllable Gyibs Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
긦
U+AE26 "긦" Hangul Syllable Gyibs is a precomposed syllable from the modern Hangul script used to write the Korean language. It represents the phonetic combination of the initial consonant "giyeok" (ㄱ), the medial vowel "yi" (ㅢ), and the final consonant "bieup" (ㅂ), resulting in the sound "gyibs." This character is part of the Hangul Syllables block in Unicode, which contains all possible syllables formed from the Korean alphabet. In practical use, "긦" appears in Korean text as a specific, relatively uncommon syllable, often found in transliterations or specialized vocabulary rather than in everyday words, reflecting the systematic and efficient design of Hangul where each syllable is encoded as a distinct character.
