β€’ Remember that β€œλ…„β€ sounds like β€œnyawn” – linking it to the idea of yawning at the start of a long year may create a quirky memory trigger.

Alternate Meanings and Slang:
β€’ When attached to derogatory terms, β€œλ…„ (nyeon)” can become a pejorative referring to a woman in an insulting manner. For example, it appears in offensive slang words like β€œκ°œλ…„ (gaenyeon).” This usage is highly disrespectful and should be avoided.
