U+CC2E "찮" Hangul Syllable Canh Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
찮
U+CC2E "찮" Hangul Syllable Canh is a precomposed syllable block in the modern Korean writing system Hangul, specifically representing the compound consonant cluster "ㄵ" (nieun-jieut) combined with the vowel "ㅏ" (a) and the final consonant "ㅎ" (hieut). It is used to form the phonetic sound "canh" in Korean, and while it is not among the most common syllables, it appears in inflected verb forms and certain lexical contexts, such as in the word "찮다" (canhda) meaning "to be not sick" or "to be fine." As part of the Hangul Syllables block in Unicode, this character demonstrates how the Korean writing system encodes complex syllabic blocks as single unified codepoints for efficient digital text processing.
