Unicode Version 18.0

Source: Noto Sans CJK Source: Browser Default

U+D661 "" Hangul Syllable Hwalt is a precomposed syllable in the modern Korean Hangul writing system, representing the phonetic combination "hwalt." It is formed from the initial consonant ㅎ (hieut, representing the "h" sound), the medial vowel ㅘ (wa, a diphthong combining "o" and "a"), and the final consonant ㄹㅌ (rieul and tieut, which together produce the "lt" sound at the end of the syllable). As part of the Hangul Syllables block in Unicode, this character is used in written Korean to denote words or morphemes containing that specific sound sequence, such as in the native Korean word "홡" (hwalt) meaning "ladle" or "scoop." Its inclusion in Unicode ensures proper digital representation and encoding for texts, software, and documents that require accurate Korean language support.
