U+CE4B "칋" Hangul Syllable Cyilh Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
칋
U+CE4B "칋" Hangul Syllable Cyilh is a precomposed syllable from the modern Hangul script, used for writing the Korean language. It represents the phonetic sound "cyilh," which combines the initial consonant "ㅊ" (chieut), the medial vowel "ㅣ" (i), and the final consonant "ㅎ" (hieuh). This character is part of the Hangul Syllables block in Unicode, which encodes all possible two and three part syllable combinations formed from the Korean alphabet. While it is a valid and encoded syllable, "칋" is extremely rare in actual Korean text, as the final consonant cluster "lh" is not commonly found in standard vocabulary, making it more of a theoretical or rarely used linguistic form.
