U+B805 "렅" Hangul Syllable Reot Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+B805 "렅" Hangul Syllable Reot is a precomposed syllable from the modern Korean writing system, Hangul, which combines the initial consonant "ㄹ" (rieul, /r/ or /l/), the medial vowel "ㅓ" (eo, /ʌ/), and the final consonant "ㅌ" (tieut, /t/). This results in the phonetic value of "reot", pronounced similar to the English word "rut" but with a softer, unaspirated final 't' sound. As part of the Hangul Syllables block in Unicode, this character is used in written Korean to represent a specific lexical syllable, though "렅" is relatively rare and appears primarily in specialized or transliterated vocabulary rather than common daily words.
