Description

The Hangul Letter Yesieung (U+3181) is a vital character in the Korean alphabet system, known as Hangul. It plays a significant role in digital text, particularly within the Korean language, as it represents the consonant sound "ye" or "y" in Korean phonetics. As one of the 14 basic components that make up Hangul, Yesieung contributes to constructing syllable blocks, which are fundamental to forming words and sentences in Korean. This character is essential for accurate representation of the Korean language in digital text, enabling clear communication and preservation of linguistic nuance. In terms of cultural and linguistic context, the Hangul script itself, including Yesieung, is a crucial aspect of Korea's rich literary heritage and plays an indispensable role in modern Korean communication.

How to type the symbol on Windows

Hold Alt and type 12673 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+3181. 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+3181 to binary: 00110001 10000001. 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 10000110 10000001
