U+CD16 "촖" Hangul Syllable Colp Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
촖
U+CD16 "촖" Hangul Syllable Colp is a specific precomposed syllable in the modern Korean writing system, representing the phonetic sound "colp". It belongs to the Hangul Syllables block, which was encoded in Unicode to facilitate digital text processing by providing complete syllable forms rather than requiring dynamic combination of individual jamo letters. This particular syllable is composed of three phonetic components: the initial consonant "ㅊ" (chieut), the vowel "ㅗ" (o), and the final consonant "ㄼ" (rieul-bieup), which together produce a sound that is not commonly used in contemporary standard Korean vocabulary but is recognized as a valid theoretical syllabic unit within the language's orthographic framework.
