U+B252 "뉒" Hangul Syllable Nwej Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
뉒
U+B252 "뉒" Hangul Syllable Nwej is a precomposed syllable from the modern Korean Hangul alphabet, formed by combining the initial consonant ᄂ (nieun, representing the sound /n/), the medial vowel ㅞ (we, a diphthong representing /we/), and the final consonant ᆨ (giyeok, representing the final /k/ sound). This specific combination results in the syllable pronounced as "nwek" or "nwej" in the Revised Romanization of Korean, though it is not a commonly used syllable in everyday Korean vocabulary. As part of the Hangul Syllables block in Unicode, it allows for efficient text encoding and display of Korean script without needing to dynamically combine individual jamo characters.
