Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ᅆ has the Unicode code point U+1146. 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+1146 to binary:
00010001 01000110
. 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 10000101 10000110

Description
The Unicode character U+1146, known as Hangul Choseong Ieung-Pansios, plays a significant role in the digital representation of the Korean language. It is part of the Hangul system, which comprises letters, syllables, and consonants used for written communication in Korea. This character specifically belongs to the category of 'Hangul Jamo,' or Korean phonetic alphabet components. In a typical usage scenario, U+1146 serves as a base or initial consonant that is further modified by other Hangul Jamos to form a complete syllable block. This modular approach allows for the precise articulation of the Korean language's complex phonological structure in digital text. The Hangul script, including U+1146 and other Unicode characters, has been instrumental in preserving and promoting Korea's linguistic identity on a global scale through accurate and efficient encoding of its writing system.
