휛
U+D71B "휛" Hangul Syllable Hwigs is a precomposed syllable from the modern Korean Hangul writing system, representing the sound "hwigs." It is formed by combining the initial consonant ㅎ (hieut), the medial vowel ㅟ (wi), and the final consonant ㄳ (giyeok siot, a compound final or "batchim"). This syllable does not correspond to a common Korean word by itself, but it can appear in specific native or borrowed vocabulary, names, or linguistic transcriptions where the sound "hwigs" is needed. As part of the Unicode Hangul Syllables block, it allows for the efficient encoding of the tens of thousands of possible syllable blocks that constitute written Korean.
