Description

U+313E Hangul Letter Rieul-Thieuth is a unique character within the Unicode Standard, specifically designed for use in the Korean language. As part of the Hangul script, it plays an essential role in digital text by contributing to the formation of syllables and words. The Rieul-Thieuth (리익) combines with other Hangul consonants and vowels to create a wide range of distinct syllable blocks, which are then combined to form various Korean words. This character holds significance in both linguistic and cultural contexts as it is rooted in the rich history of the Korean writing system. The Hangul script, including U+313E Rieul-Thieuth, was developed during the 15th century under the direction of King Sejong the Great, with the aim to promote literacy among the common people of Korea. Today, this character continues to be an integral part of digital text, facilitating effective communication in Korean language circles worldwide.

How to type the symbol on Windows

Hold Alt and type 12606 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+313E. 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+313E to binary: 00110001 00111110. 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 10111110
