Unicode Version 17.0
볏
U+BCCF "볏" Hangul Syllable Byeos is a precomposed syllable representing the sound "byeot" in the modern Korean alphabet, Hangul. It is formed by combining the initial consonant ㅂ (bieup), the medial vowel ㅕ (yeo), and the final consonant ㅅ (siot), which together produce the syllable used in words such as "볏짚" (byeotjip), meaning rice straw. This character is part of the Hangul Syllables block in Unicode, which encodes complete syllabic blocks rather than individual jamo components, ensuring proper display and text processing for the Korean writing system.
