U+B20B "눋" Hangul Syllable Nud Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
눋
U+B20B "눋" Hangul Syllable Nud is a precomposed syllable from the modern Hangul syllabary used to write the Korean language, specifically representing the phonetic combination of the initial consonant "ㄴ" (n) and the medial vowel "ㅜ" (u) with the final consonant "ㄷ" (d), resulting in the sound "nud." It is part of the Hangul Syllables block in Unicode, where each syllable is encoded as a single character to facilitate efficient text processing and rendering. This particular syllable is rarely used in contemporary Korean vocabulary, but it demonstrates the systematic and block building nature of the Hangul writing system, where individual letters are combined into syllabic boxes to form the script's characteristic unit blocks.
