먫
U+BA2B "먫" Hangul Syllable Myaelh is a precomposed syllable in the modern Korean Hangul writing system, representing the sound "myaelh" as a combination of the initial consonant ㅁ (mieum), the medial vowel ㅒ (yae), and the final consonant ㅀ (rieul-hieut). This specific syllable is part of the Hangul Syllables block in Unicode, which covers all possible combinations of Korean jamo characters, and it is used primarily in written Korean text.
