U+CEB6 "캶" Hangul Syllable Kyalm Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
캶
U+CEB6 "캶" Hangul Syllable Kyalm is a precomposed syllable from the modern Korean Hangul writing system, representing the phonetic combination of the initial consonant "ㅋ" (kieuk, sounding like a strong "k"), the medial vowel "ㅑ" (ya, like the "ya" in "yacht"), and the final consonant "ㄻ" (rieul-mieut, pronounced as a closing "lm" sound). As part of the Hangul Syllables block in Unicode, this character is used in written Korean to form specific words, though "캶" itself is an uncommon syllable that rarely appears in everyday vocabulary. Its inclusion in the Unicode standard ensures consistent digital representation and text processing across platforms for the Korean language.
