Unicode Version 18.0

Source: Noto Sans CJK Source: Browser Default

U+AD2B "" Hangul Syllable Gwaes is a precomposed syllable from the modern Korean Hangul script, representing the phonetic sound "gwaes" which is formed by combining the initial consonant "ㄱ" (g), the medial vowel "ㅙ" (wae), and the final consonant "ㅅ" (s). This character is part of the Hangul Syllables block in Unicode, which encodes all possible combinations of Korean consonants and vowels arranged in a CV or CVC structure. While it is a valid and encoded character, "괫" is not commonly used in modern Korean vocabulary and appears more frequently in historical texts or as a rare, non-standard spelling. Its inclusion in Unicode ensures that the full range of theoretical Hangul syllables can be digitally represented, preserving the completeness of the writing system for linguistic and scholarly applications.
