U+B2EF "닯" Hangul Syllable Dalb Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+B2EF "닯" Hangul Syllable Dalb is a precomposed syllable in the modern Korean writing system, formed from the initial consonant "ㄷ" (d), the medial vowel "ㅏ" (a), and the final consonant "ㄼ" (lb), which is a consonant cluster. This character represents a specific phonetic combination that becomes "dalb" in romanization, though it is worth noting that "닯" is not a commonly used word in standard contemporary Korean; it appears primarily in rare or archaic contexts, such as in historical texts or as a morphological component in certain dialects. As part of the Hangul Syllables Unicode block (AC00-D7AF), which encodes all 11,172 possible precomposed syllables of the Korean alphabet through a systematic algorithm, U+B2EF occupies a precise position within that vast, orderly arrangement of phonetic building blocks.
