U+AED6 "껖" Hangul Syllable Ggeop Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
껖
U+AED6 "껖" Hangul Syllable Ggeop is a single syllable in the modern Korean writing system known as Hangul, representing the phonetic combination of the initial consonant "gg" (a tensed "g" sound) with the medial vowel "eo" and the final consonant "p". This syllable is composed of the Hangul letters ᄁ (ssang giyeok), ᅥ (eo), and ᆸ (bieup), which combine to form the closed syllable block "껖". In practical use, this particular syllable is exceedingly rare in contemporary Korean vocabulary, as it does not commonly appear in standard words or proper nouns, making it more of a technical or typographic curiosity within the Unicode standard for representing the full set of theoretically possible Hangul syllables.
