U+CE83 "캃" Hangul Syllable Kalh is a precomposed syllable in the modern Korean writing system, representing the phonetic sound "kalh" which combines the initial consonant "k" (ㅋ), the vowel "a" (ㅏ), and the final consonant "l" (ㄹ) followed by the aspirated tensed "h" (ㅎ) as a complex final cluster. This character is part of the Hangul Syllables block in Unicode, specifically encoded to provide a single code point for this distinct syllabic block, which allows for efficient text processing and display in digital environments.
