U+BA1A "먚" Hangul Syllable Myap Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
먚
U+BA1A "먚" Hangul Syllable Myap is a precomposed syllable in the modern Korean writing system, representing the phonetic sound "myap." It is formed by combining the initial consonant "ㅁ" (mieum, equivalent to "m"), the medial vowel "ㅑ" (ya), and the final consonant "ㅍ" (pieup, equivalent to "p"). As part of the Hangul Syllables block in Unicode, this character is encoded as a single code point for efficient text processing and display, allowing it to be used in digital contexts where Korean text is rendered. While the syllable "myap" is a valid phonetic construction in Korean, it is extremely rare in actual vocabulary, appearing primarily in transliterations or loanwords rather than in native Korean words.
