U+B96A "륪" Hangul Syllable Ryubs Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+B96A "륪" Hangul Syllable Ryubs is a precomposed syllable in the modern Korean Hangul writing system, representing the phonetic value of "ryubs." It is formed by combining the initial consonant "rieul" (ㄹ), the medial vowel "yu" (ㅠ), and the final consonant "bieup" (ㅂ), with the "rieul" at the start producing an "r" sound, though in standard Korean pronunciation this initial "r" often becomes "l" or "n" depending on word position. This character is part of the Hangul Syllables block in Unicode, which encodes all possible syllabic combinations of Korean letters, and it is used in written Korean, though it is relatively rare in everyday vocabulary.
