Unicode Version 17.0

U+B68E "뚎" Hangul Syllable Ddyolp is a precomposed syllable from the modern Hangul orthography, representing the Korean phonetic combination of the initial consonant "ㄸ" (a tense, unaspirated d sound), the medial vowel "ㅛ" (yo), and the final consonant "ㄼ" (which is pronounced as a final "l" sound influenced by its appended consonant "ㅂ" in some contexts, though standard romanization renders it as "lp"). This character belongs to the Hangul Syllables block in Unicode, which encodes all possible syllabic blocks formed by combining initial consonants, vowels, and final consonants in the Korean writing system, with U+B68E specifically placed in the range dedicated to syllables beginning with a double consonant. In practical usage, this syllable is rare in everyday Korean, appearing mostly in specialized vocabulary or descriptive contexts where such a phonetic cluster naturally occurs.
