Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ᄎ has the Unicode code point U+110E. 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+110E to binary:
00010001 00001110
. 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:
11100001 10000100 10001110

Description
The Unicode character U+110E, Hangul Choseong Chieuch (ᄸ), is a fundamental component of the Hangul writing system, which forms the Korean alphabet. In digital text, it primarily serves as a consonant in the Hangul script and is used to represent the sound 'chieuch' or 'ch.' The Hangul writing system, which includes Choseong characters like U+110E, was developed during the 15th century under the reign of King Sejong the Great, with the aim of making literacy accessible to the common people. This innovation in typography played a significant role in shaping Korean culture and language, enabling widespread literacy and promoting the development of literature, education, and administration within the Korean peninsula. Today, Hangul Choseong Chieuch continues to be an integral part of the Korean script, playing its role in the representation and transmission of the Korean language in digital environments around the world.
