U+D1C9 "퇉" Hangul Syllable Twalt Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
퇉
U+D1C9 "퇉" Hangul Syllable Twalt is a precomposed syllable in the modern Korean Hangul writing system, representing the phonetic combination of the initial consonant "t" (ㅌ), the medial vowel "wa" (ㅘ), and the final consonant "lt" (ㄾ). It is part of the Hangul Syllables block in Unicode, which encodes all possible combinations of Korean letters into single codepoints for text processing efficiency. The syllable "Twalt" does not correspond to a common Korean word, making it an extremely rare or theoretical character, primarily used for encoding completeness rather than everyday language. Its inclusion highlights Unicode's comprehensive approach to representing the full syllabic inventory of Hangul.
