U+B779 "띹" Hangul Syllable Ddit Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+B779 "띹" Hangul Syllable Ddit is a single syllable block in the modern Korean writing system, formed by combining the initial consonant "ㄸ" (a tense "dd" sound), the vowel "ㅣ" (the long "ee" sound), and the final consonant "ㅎ" (the aspirated "h" or "t" sound). This character represents a valid but extremely rare syllable in Korean, as the tense initial "ㄸ" is uncommon and the final "ㅎ" is typically not paired with this vowel in everyday vocabulary. Due to its rarity, "띹" does not correspond to a common Korean word and appears primarily in specialized linguistic contexts, such as in dictionaries documenting theoretical or historical syllable forms, or in digital text encoding for the purpose of complete character coverage. It is part of the Hangul Syllables block in Unicode, which was designed to systematically encode all possible 11,172 precomposed Korean syllable combinations.
