Unicode Version 17.0
퐡
U+D421 "퐡" Hangul Syllable Pwat is a precomposed syllable from the modern Hangul script, used to write the Korean language. It represents the phonetic combination of the initial consonant “ㅍ” (p), the medial vowel “ㅘ” (wa), and the final consonant “ㅌ” (t), resulting in the sound “pwat.” This character is part of the Hangul Syllables block in Unicode, which systematically encodes all possible syllabic forms of the Korean alphabet to facilitate digital text processing and display. While not commonly found in everyday vocabulary, “퐡” exemplifies the structural logic of Hangul, where individual jamo components are combined into a single, compact block for efficient writing and reading.
