Unicode Version 17.0
눭
U+B22D "눭" Hangul Syllable Nweolt is a precomposed syllable from the modern Hangul block, representing a specific Korean sound not commonly used in everyday modern Korean vocabulary. It is composed of the initial consonant ᄂ (n), the medial vowel ᅯ (weo), and the final consonant ᆯ (l), which together form the phonetically rare syllable "nweolt." This character is primarily of interest to linguists, typographers, and those working with historical or dialectal Korean texts, as it demonstrates the systematic nature of Hangul’s syllabic block construction. While it may appear in specialized or digital typeface testing contexts, it is not a standard part of contemporary written Korean.
