ᄭᅮᆷ

From Middle Korean ᄭᅮᆷ〮 (skwúm).

• IPA^(key): /k͈um/

ᄭᅮᆷ (skwum)

1. dream
   • c. 1790, 樂學拾零 (Akhak Seumnyeong):

     思(ᄉᆞ)郞(랑)이거즛말이님날思(ᄉᆞ)郞(랑)거즛말이 / ᄭᅮᆷ에와뵈단말이긔더욱거즛말이 / 날갓치ᄌᆞᆷ아니오면어늬ᄭᅮᆷ에뵈리오

     sarang-i geojeutmar-i, nim na-l sarang geojeutmar-i / kkum-e wa boedan mar-i geu-i deouk geojeutmar-i / na-l gachi jam ani omyeon eonui kkum-e boerio

     Love is a lie, that my beloved loves me is a lie / that I'll come see her in her dreams is the greatest lie of all / if she couldn't sleep, as I cannot, what dreams could she see me in?

This obsolete spelling uses a digraph including the letter ㅅ to represent the tensing of the other consonant, a phenomenon now represented with doubled consonants. For instance, modern 꿈 (kkum) was written ᄭᅮᆷ (kkum). This spelling, called the 된시옷 (doensiot) or "tense s" spelling, was the most common way to write tense consonants until at least around 1900. The "tense s" spelling continued to be common into the early twentieth century until it was deprecated in the major spelling reforms of the 1930s.
