U+C615 "옕" Hangul Syllable Yelt Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
옕
U+C615 "옕" Hangul Syllable Yelt is a precomposed syllable in the modern Korean Hangul writing system, representing the phonetic sound "yelt." It is formed by combining the initial consonant ㅇ (which is silent in this position), the medial vowel ㅖ (ye), and the final consonant ㄹㅌ (lt), creating a single syllable block. This character is part of the Hangul Syllables block in Unicode, which encodes all possible syllable combinations for the Korean alphabet. In practical use, "옕" is extremely rare in modern Korean vocabulary, as the sound "yelt" does not occur in common native or Sino-Korean words, making it a largely theoretical or typographical entity within the Unicode standard.
