Unicode Version 17.0
먜
U+BA1C "먜" Hangul Syllable Myae is a precomposed syllable in the Hangul script, representing the sound "myae" as used in the Korean language. It is formed by combining the initial consonant ㅁ (mieum) with the vowel ㅑ (ya) and the final consonant ㅔ (e), though in modern Korean usage, this syllable is relatively rare and typically appears in specific native words or loanword transcriptions rather than common everyday vocabulary. As part of the Unicode Hangul Syllables block (U+AC00 to U+D7AF), it was encoded to support the systematic representation of all possible Korean syllable combinations, facilitating digital text processing and display for the Korean writing system.
