U+C519 "씙" Hangul Syllable Ssyilt Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+C519 "씙" Hangul Syllable Ssyilt is a precomposed syllable from the modern Hangul script, used for writing the Korean language. It represents the phonetic combination of the initial consonant "ㅆ" (ssang shiot, a tense "ss" sound), the medial vowel "ㅢ" (ui, a diphthong pronounced like "ɯi"), and the final consonant "ㄹ" (rieul, an "l" sound). This syllable is extremely rare in contemporary Korean vocabulary, as it does not commonly appear in standard words or names, and its usage is largely confined to archaic or specialized linguistic contexts where such unusual sound combinations might occur.
