Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ㎪ has the Unicode code point U+33AA. In UTF-8, it is encoded using 3 bytes because its codepoint is in the range of
0x0800to0xffff.
Therefore we know that the UTF-8 encoding will be done over 16 bits within the final 24 bits and that it will have the format:1110xxxx 10xxxxxx 10xxxxxx
Where thexare the payload bits.UTF-8 Encoding bit layout by codepoint range Codepoint Range Bytes Bit pattern Payload length U+0000 - U+007F 1 0xxxxxxx 7 bits U+0080 - U+07FF 2 110xxxxx 10xxxxxx 11 bits U+0800 - U+FFFF 3 1110xxxx 10xxxxxx 10xxxxxx 16 bits U+10000 - U+10FFFF 4 11110xxx 10xxxxxx 10xxxxxx 10xxxxxx 21 bits Step 2: Obtain the payload bits:
Convert the hexadecimal code point U+33AA to binary:
00110011 10101010. Those are the payload bits.Step 3: Fill in the bits to match the bit pattern:
Obtain the final bytes by arranging the paylod bits to match the bit layout:
11100011 10001110 10101010

Description
The Unicode character U+33AA represents the "SQUARE KPA" (ꜰ) in digital text. This symbol is used primarily in the Hangul writing system of Korean language, where it serves as a consonant. Specifically, it denotes the unaspirated voiceless velar plosive sound, which can be transliterated as "k". The character has a square shape to differentiate it from other similar characters in the Hangul system. It is an important element of the Korean language's phonetic structure and plays a crucial role in accurately conveying spoken sounds through written text. In typography, the SQUARE KPA helps maintain consistency and clarity in digital and printed materials for Korean-speaking audiences.
