Unicode Version 17.0
쉛
U+C25B "쉛" Hangul Syllable Swelb is a precomposed syllable in the modern Korean Hangul writing system, representing the phonetic sound "swelb." It combines the initial consonant "ㅅ" (s), the medial vowel "ㅞ" (we), and the final consonant "ㄼ" (lb) into a single, fully formed block character. This character is part of the Hangul Syllables block in Unicode, which includes all legally possible syllable combinations for contemporary Korean. While it is a valid and properly formed syllable according to Hangul orthography, the syllable "swelb" is considered non-standard and does not appear in common Korean vocabulary, making it a useful example of Unicode’s comprehensive coverage of theoretical linguistic constructs.
