U+AEAE "꺮" Hangul Syllable Ggyaelp Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
꺮
U+AEAE "꺮" Hangul Syllable Ggyaelp is a precomposed syllable from the modern Hangul script, representing the sound "ggyaelp," which combines the initial consonant 'ㄲ' (a tensed 'g' sound), the medial diphthong 'ㅒ' (a 'yae' sound), and the final consonant 'ㄼ' (a 'lb' sound cluster). It is part of the Hangul Syllables block in Unicode, where syllables are encoded individually rather than as separate jamo components, facilitating text processing for the Korean writing system. This character would be used in written Korean to represent a specific syllable, though it is relatively rare in common modern vocabulary due to the infrequent combination of its constituent sounds.
