U+C950 "쥐" Hangul Syllable Jwi Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
쥐
U+C950 "쥐" Hangul Syllable Jwi is a precomposed syllable in the modern Korean Hangul writing system, representing the sound "jwi" as in the English word "jewel" without the final consonant. This character is formed by combining the initial consonant "ㅈ" (jieut), the medial vowel "ㅟ" (wi), and no final consonant (받침). In Korean, "쥐" most commonly means "rat" or "mouse," and it appears frequently in everyday vocabulary, such as in the word "쥐구멍" (jwigumeong, meaning "mouse hole"). As part of the Unicode Hangul Syllables block, it allows for efficient digital text representation of Korean, which traditionally uses a mix of individual jamo characters or these precomposed syllable blocks.
