Unicode Version 17.0
퀠
U+D020 "퀠" Hangul Syllable Kwel is a precomposed syllable from the modern Korean Hangul writing system, representing the phonetic sound "kwel." It is formed by combining the initial consonant "ㅋ" (kieuk, pronounced as a aspirated 'k'), the vowel "ㅞ" (we, a diphthong pronounced like 'weh'), and the final consonant "ㄹ" (rieul, an 'l' sound). This character belongs to the Hangul Syllables block of the Unicode standard, which encodes all possible syllable combinations for the Korean alphabet. In practical usage, "퀠" appears in Korean text for words or names where that specific syllable is needed, though it is relatively rare in everyday vocabulary, often found in transliterations or specific compounds.
