U+C447 "쑇" Hangul Syllable Ssoeh Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+C447 "쑇" Hangul Syllable Ssoeh is a single syllable in the modern Korean writing system Hangul, formed by combining the initial consonant “ㅆ” (ssang shiot, representing the sound “ss”), the medial vowel “ㅚ” (oe, a front rounded vowel pronounced like the “we” in “wet”), and the final consonant (batchim) “ㅎ” (hieut, representing an “h” sound). As part of the Unified Hangul Code block, this character represents a specific phonetic unit in the Korean language, though it is extremely rare or even obsolete in actual modern usage, as the combination “쑈” is typically written without a final “ㅎ” in standard contemporary Korean. Its inclusion in the Unicode standard ensures digital compatibility for historical texts, linguistic research, or specialized transcription.
