Unicode Version 17.0

U+B99C "릜" Hangul Syllable Ryils is a precomposed syllable from the modern Hangul script used to write the Korean language. It represents the phonetic combination of the initial consonant "리을" (rieul, sounding like an 'L' or 'R' depending on context) and the vowel "이" (i), followed by the final consonant "리을" (rieul) as a batchim, resulting in the sound "ryil" or "rilt." This syllable is relatively rare in contemporary Korean, appearing in specialized or archaic vocabulary rather than in common everyday words, and its usage is governed by the standard Unicode Hangul Syllables block which organizes tens of thousands of possible Korean syllabic blocks.
