U+C0DF "샟" Hangul Syllable Saec Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
샟
U+C0DF "샟" Hangul Syllable Saec is a precomposed Hangul syllable representing the sound "saec" in modern Korean, where it is most commonly used as the word for "new" or "bird" depending on context. This specific character is formed from the initial consonant ㅅ (s), the vowel ㅐ (ae), and the final consonant ㅊ (ch), though its pronunciation has simplified in standard Seoul Korean to a sound like "sae" without the distinct final stop in many casual speech settings. As part of the Hangul Syllables block in Unicode, it was encoded alongside tens of thousands of other syllables to support the systematic representation of Korean writing, enabling consistent digital text processing for the Korean language.
