Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ㉬ has the Unicode code point U+326C. 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+326C to binary:
00110010 01101100. 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 10101100

Description
U+326C, also known as CIRCLED HANGUL PHIEUPH, is a character in the Unicode Standard that plays an essential role in digital text encoding for the Korean language. The character represents the consonant 'ㅇ' in the Hangul script, which is used to write the Korean language. In its typical usage, CIRCLED HANGUL PHIEUPH serves as a base or initial sound marker in the Hangul syllabary, a phonetic writing system that combines various consonants and vowels to form syllables. This character is crucial for accurately representing the sounds of the Korean language in digital text formats, enabling seamless communication between speakers of different dialects and countries. The use of CIRCLED HANGUL PHIEUPH highlights the importance of the Unicode Standard in preserving linguistic diversity and promoting cross-cultural understanding through accurate text encoding.
