Across locales
What each covering migration carries for this concept, per locale — the whole-brain view, not filtered by your language. Forms are the migration's leaf values (pre-transform, pre-human-verdict); a locale without a form falls back to canonical English. Chips open that locale's live docs page for this term.

'널' is a common transliteration of 'null' used in Korean programming contexts. It's widely understood and avoids the ambiguity of '無'. It's the de facto standard in many Korean programming communities.
Issue breakdown
- accuracy While '無' represents absence, it's overly broad. In programming, 'null' specifically indicates the absence of a *value* or a deliberate lack of object reference. '無' can mean 'nothingness' in a philosophical sense.
- specificity Low. Doesn't convey the programming-specific meaning of 'null'.
- consistency Problematic as it's collapsed with 'nil' and 'none', losing nuance.
