U+C5BE "얾" Hangul Syllable Eolm Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
얾
U+C5BE "얾" Hangul Syllable Eolm is a rare and complex Korean syllable composed of the initial consonant ㅇ (silent), the medial vowel ㅓ (eo), and the final consonant cluster ㄻ (lm), which is a double final representing the sounds "l" and "m" in sequence. This syllable is not commonly used in modern standard Korean vocabulary, and its pronunciation approximates "eolm," with the lips closing for the final "m" sound after the lateral "l." As part of the Hangul Syllables block in Unicode, it is an example of the systematic and combinatorial nature of the Korean writing system, where individual jamo characters are combined into syllabic blocks.
