Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ㅮ has the Unicode code point U+316E. In UTF-8, it is encoded using 3 bytes because its codepoint is in the range of
0x0800
to0xffff
.
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 thex
are 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+316E to binary:
00110001 01101110
. 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 10000101 10101110

Description
The Hangul letter U+316E, also known as MIEUM-PIEUP (ㅡ), is a fundamental component of the Korean alphabet system, Hangul. As part of the Unicode character set, it plays a significant role in digital text by enabling accurate representation and encoding of the Korean language online and in software applications. In Hangul, MIEUM-PIEUP serves as a consonant representing the voiceless bilabial fricative sound /h/ or /p/, depending on its phonetic context within words. This letter contributes to the rich linguistic heritage of Korean culture and facilitates efficient communication in digital environments, enhancing the accessibility and exchange of information across diverse regions. The accurate representation of Hangul characters, including MIEUM-PIEUP, is crucial for preserving the integrity of the Korean language and promoting its global understanding and appreciation.
