Unicode Version 17.0
뉉
U+B249 "뉉" Hangul Syllable Nwelt is a precomposed syllable from the modern Hangul script, used primarily for writing the Korean language. It represents the phonetic combination of the initial consonant “ㄴ” (n), the medial vowel “ㅞ” (we), and the final consonant “ㄹ” (l), resulting in the sound “nwelt.” This character is part of the Hangul Syllables block in Unicode, which encodes all possible syllabic combinations of the Korean alphabet systematically. While “뉉” is a valid and defined syllable, it is rarely used in contemporary Korean vocabulary due to the specific and uncommon sound it represents.
