U+C313 "쌓" Hangul Syllable Ssah Unicode Character

U+C313 "쌓" Hangul Syllable Ssah is a precomposed syllable in the modern Korean writing system, formed from the initial consonant ㅆ (ssang shiot, representing a tense "ss" sound), the medial vowel ㅏ (a), and the final consonant ㅎ (hieut). It is part of the Hangul Syllables block in Unicode, which encodes all possible syllable combinations of the Korean alphabet in a single codepoint for efficient text processing. In practical use, this syllable appears in words like "쌓다" (ssahda), meaning "to stack" or "to pile up," where it represents the verb stem. Its phonetic output in Korean is a tense, aspirated "ssah," reflecting the combination of the double shiot and the final hieut that alters the syllable's pronunciation.
