U+B4B1 "뒱" Hangul Syllable Dwilt Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+B4B1 "뒱" Hangul Syllable Dwilt is a precomposed syllable in the modern Korean writing system, representing the phonetic compound of the consonants ㄷ (d), ㅟ (wi), and the final consonant ㄹ (l) combined with the vowel ᆰ (which itself is a digraph of ㅡ and ㅣ). As part of the Hangul Syllables block, it was encoded in Unicode version 2.0 to support the efficient representation of Korean text by allowing each syllable block, which is formed by combining initial, medial, and final jamo letters, to be mapped to a single codepoint. While not a commonly used syllable in standard Korean vocabulary, it serves as a valid construction within the systematic composition of Hangul and can appear in specialized contexts such as linguistic transcription, phonetic notation, or in the transliteration of foreign loanwords.
