U+B940 "륀" Hangul Syllable Rwin Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
륀
U+B940 "륀" Hangul Syllable Rwin is a precomposed syllable from the modern Korean Hangul writing system, combining the consonants “ㄹ” (rieul) and “ㅇ” (ieung) with the vowel “ㅟ” (wi) to form a single block, which is then followed by the final consonant “ㄴ” (nieun) to complete the syllable “rwin.” This character is part of the Hangul Syllables block in Unicode, which includes over 11,000 precomposed syllables that are encoded for efficient text representation. While “륀” is a valid phonetically constructed syllable in Korean, it is not a common or standard syllable found in everyday Korean vocabulary, as the initial “ㄹ” in native Korean words often shifts to “ㄴ” or “ㄷ” when following certain phonetic rules.
