Unicode Version 17.0
않
U+C54A "않" Hangul Syllable Anh is a precomposed syllable used in the Korean Hangul writing system, representing the phonetic sound "anh." It is formed by combining the initial consonant ㅇ (silent), the medial vowel ㅏ (a), and the final consonant cluster ㄶ (nh), making it an essential component in constructing negative verb forms and other grammatical structures in Korean. This character appears frequently in written Korean, particularly as part of the negating auxiliary verb "않다" (anhda), meaning "not" or "to not do," and is thus integral to both formal and informal texts, from literature to everyday digital communication.
