U+FFAD "ᆳ" Halfwidth Hangul Letter Rieul-Sios Unicode Character
Unicode Version 18.0
Source: Browser Default
U+FFAD "ᆳ" Halfwidth Hangul Letter Rieul-Sios is a typographic variant of the consonant cluster representing the Korean Hangul jamo combination of rieul (ㄹ) and sios (ㅅ), used primarily in halfwidth form for compatibility with older East Asian text systems that required fixed-width characters. This specific glyph occupies the width of a single ASCII character, unlike its fullwidth counterpart, and was included in Unicode to support legacy character sets where halfwidth Hangul letters were encoded separately. It is not commonly used in modern Korean text, but it may appear in historical digital contexts or in specialized data where space efficiency was prioritized over standard typographic conventions.
