U+CA26 "쨦" Hangul Syllable Jjyabs Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+CA26 "쨦" Hangul Syllable Jjyabs is a specific encoded glyph within the Hangul script, representing a single complete syllable formed by the initial consonant "jj" (a tensed or fortis 'j'), the vowel "ya" (the 'y' glide followed by the open 'a' sound), and the final consonant "bs" (the final cluster of 'b' and 's'). It is part of the modern Korean writing system and was introduced in Unicode's Hangul Syllables block, which systematically allocates codepoints for all possible syllable combinations based on the South Korean standard KS X 1001 and the initial, medial, and final jamo (letters) of the Korean alphabet. While not commonly used in everyday contemporary Korean text, this syllable exists to allow for comprehensive digital representation of the language, including for phonetic transcription or historical linguistic contexts.
