Unicode Version 17.0

U+B2AC "늬" Hangul Syllable Nyi is a precomposed syllable in the modern Hangul script, representing the sound "nyi" (a combination of the initial consonant ㅊ with a different initial sound corrected from earlier drafts, but correctly derived from the initial consonant ᄂ 'n' and the vowel ㅢ 'yi'). It belongs to the Hangul Syllables block in the Unicode standard, which encodes complete syllabic blocks used in the Korean writing system, and is typically employed in specific native Korean words or loanword transcriptions, though it is not as common as more frequent syllables in everyday Korean text.
