U+C0B9 "" Hangul Syllable Salt Unicode Character

Unicode Version 18.0

Source: Noto Sans CJK Source: Browser Default

U+C0B9 "" Hangul Syllable Salt is a specific precomposed syllable within the Hangul script of the Korean writing system, formed by combining the initial consonant S (시옷, ㅅ) with the vowel A (아, ㅏ) and the final consonant L (리을, ㄹ), though its actual pronunciation as "Salt" reflects the modern Korean consonantal shift where the final ㄹ is typically pronounced as an L or R sound before a syllable boundary. This character belongs to the Hangul Syllables block (U+AC00 to U+D7AF), a large, ordered set created algorithmically from Korean phoneme combinations. While "sal" is a common Korean word meaning "flesh" or "price," this specific syllable form is not a standalone word in standard modern usage, and its inclusion in Unicode primarily serves to maintain orthographic completeness for representing any possible Hangul jamo sequence in digital text.
