Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ㉲ has the Unicode code point U+3272. 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+3272 to binary:
00110010 01110010. 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 10001001 10110010

Description
U+3272 is the Unicode character code for "CIRCLED HANGUL MIEUM A" (≪), a letter in the Korean Hangul alphabet. In digital text, it typically represents the sound /m/, and plays a crucial role in the Korean language as one of the 14 consonant letters in Hangul, which is an abugida script used primarily for writing Korean. The "CIRCLED" part of its name signifies that the top of this character is embellished with a circle, adding to its aesthetic appeal and making it visually distinct from other characters in the Hangul system. This unique design feature also helps to differentiate it from similar characters used in other languages or scripts, emphasizing its cultural significance within the Korean linguistic context. U+3272 is an essential element in digital text processing for Korean language applications, including word processors and translation software, where it enables accurate representation of Korean texts while preserving their original pronunciation, meaning, and grammatical structure.
