Unicode Version 17.0
뎋
U+B38B "뎋" Hangul Syllable Deh is a precomposed syllable in the modern Korean writing system Hangul, formed by combining the initial consonant ᄃ (d) with the medial vowel ㅔ (e) and the final consonant ᄒ (h) to create the sound "deh" (IPA: [te̞] or [de̞]). This character is part of the Hangul Syllables block in Unicode, which encodes all possible syllable blocks that can be formed from the Korean alphabet, allowing for efficient text representation. As a single character, "뎋" typically conveys no independent meaning but serves as a phonetic building block in Korean words and names, contributing to the language's complex syllabary system where each block represents one syllable.
