Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ᄬ has the Unicode code point U+112C. 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+112C to binary:
00010001 00101100
. 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 10101100

Description
U+112C (Hangul Choeseong Kapyeounssangpieup) is a significant character in the Korean alphabet system, known as Hangul. In digital text, it serves as one of the 19 choiceong characters, which are used to represent initial consonant sounds in Korean words. Choiceong characters contribute to the phonetic structure and formation of syllables in the language. The character U+112C specifically denotes the initial consonant "k". It is part of the Unicode Standard, a universal encoding system that supports the representation of text in most known writing systems, ensuring accurate digital transmission and display of text across various platforms and devices. As Korean remains an important global language, particularly in South Korea and North Korea, the usage of U+112C reflects its vital role in maintaining linguistic accuracy and cultural integrity in the digital realm.
