Description

The Unicode character U+3133 is known as the Hangul Letter Kiyeok-Sios. In the realm of digital text, this unique character plays a crucial role in representing Korean language text through the Hangul script system. It is part of the extended Hangul Compatibility Jamo block, which includes characters that are used alongside base consonants and vowels to create various combinations, thus enabling communication in the Korean language. The Hangul script itself is a system of phonetic writing, which was developed during the 15th century under the order of Sejong the Great, the fourth king of the Joseon Dynasty. This character is significant as it represents the 'k' sound when used in combination with other Hangul jamos to form a syllable. The Kiyeok-Sios, or the "s" sound, adds an important phonetic distinction to the Korean language. It also contributes to the linguistic richness and diversity of the Korean language, which is currently spoken by over 75 million people worldwide. In terms of its technical context, U+3133 falls under the Hangul Syllables block, and it is important for software developers and programmers working on applications that require Unicode support for accurate representation and processing of Korean text. Overall, the Hangul Letter Kiyeok-Sios is an indispensable character in digital text, serving as a vital component of the Korean language's unique system of phonetic writing.

How to type the symbol on Windows

Hold Alt and type 12595 on the numpad. Or use Character Map.

  1. Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout

    The character has the Unicode code point U+3133. In UTF-8, it is encoded using 3 bytes because its codepoint is in the range of 0x0800 to 0xffff.

    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 the x are the payload bits.

    UTF-8 Encoding bit layout by codepoint range
    Codepoint RangeBytesBit patternPayload length
    U+0000 - U+007F10xxxxxxx7 bits
    U+0080 - U+07FF2110xxxxx 10xxxxxx11 bits
    U+0800 - U+FFFF31110xxxx 10xxxxxx 10xxxxxx16 bits
    U+10000 - U+10FFFF411110xxx 10xxxxxx 10xxxxxx 10xxxxxx21 bits
  2. Step 2: Obtain the payload bits:

    Convert the hexadecimal code point U+3133 to binary: 00110001 00110011. Those are the payload bits.

  3. 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 10000100 10110011
