U+B55D "땝" Hangul Syllable Ddaeb Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
땝
U+B55D "땝" Hangul Syllable Ddaeb is a single precomposed syllable from the modern Korean Hangul writing system. It represents the phonetic sound “ddaeb”, which is formed by combining the initial consonant “ㄸ” (a tense “dd” sound), the medial vowel “ㅐ” (a short “ae” sound similar to the “a” in “cat”), and the final consonant “ㅂ” (a “b” or “p” sound). This character is part of the Hangul syllabary block in Unicode, specifically defined within the range U+AC00 to U+D7AF, which encodes all possible standard Hangul syllables. In practical use, “땝” is relatively rare in contemporary Korean vocabulary, typically appearing in onomatopoeic expressions, dialectal words, or specialized contexts rather than in common everyday speech.
