Unicode Version 17.0
캹
U+CEB9 "캹" Hangul Syllable Kyalt is a precomposed syllable from the modern Korean Hangul script, representing the phonetic combination of the initial consonant "ㅋ" (kh), the medial vowel "ㅑ" (ya), and the final consonant "ㄹ" (l) along with a following "ㅅ" (t) to form the final cluster "ㄻ" (lm), which creates the sound "kyalt" as pronounced in Korean. This character is part of the Hangul Syllables block in Unicode, which encodes all possible syllables formed by Hangul letters, and is used in written Korean to represent a specific linguistic unit, though it is rarely encountered in common vocabulary and may appear more often in specialized or archaic contexts.
