Unicode Version 17.0
삈
U+C088 "삈" Hangul Syllable Bbyiss is a precomposed syllable from the Hangul Syllables block, representing a specific phonetic combination in the Korean writing system. It is formed from the initial consonant "ㅃ" (ssangbieup, a tense bilabial stop), the vowel "ㅣ" (i), and the final consonant "ㅆ" (ssangiot, a tense alveolar sibilant), resulting in the sound generally transcribed as "bbyiss" with a short, sharp pronunciation. This character is used in modern Korean as part of the standard syllabic inventory, though it appears in limited vocabulary, such as onomatopoeic words or specific nouns, and is encoded in Unicode to ensure consistent digital representation of all Hangul syllables.
