U+C778 "인" Hangul Syllable In Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+C778 "인" Hangul Syllable In is a precomposed syllable in the modern Korean Hangul writing system, representing the sound "in" as in the English word "in". It is formed by combining the initial consonant "ㅇ" (ieung), which is silent when it appears at the start of a syllable, and the vowel "ㅣ" (i), which produces the "ee" sound, followed by the final consonant "ㄴ" (nieun), which yields the "n" sound. This syllable appears frequently in Korean vocabulary and is notably the first syllable of the country name "인도" for India and the word "인간" meaning human.
