Unicode Version 17.0

U+C7B8 "잸" Hangul Syllable Jaels is a precomposed syllable from the modern Korean Hangul script, representing the phonetic sound "jaels." This character is formed by combining the initial consonant ㅈ (jieut), the medial vowel ㅐ (ae), and the final consonant ㄹ (rieul), which together create a syllable that does not commonly appear in standard contemporary Korean vocabulary. It is part of the Hangul Syllables block in Unicode, which was designed to encode all possible 11,172 precomposed Korean syllables for efficient text processing and display. While "잸" is a valid orthographic construction, it typically occurs in specialized or historical contexts rather than everyday usage.
