Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ᄆ has the Unicode code point U+1106. 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+1106 to binary:
00010001 00000110
. 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 10000110

Description
The Unicode character U+1106 represents the Hangul Choseong Mieum, a core component of the Korean writing system known as Hangul. In digital text, this character serves as a crucial building block for constructing Korean words by combining with other Hangul characters called Jamo. The Hangul system, which is both phonetic and syllabic, utilizes Choseong consonants like Mieum to convey the initial consonant sound of a syllable. U+1106's significance extends beyond its linguistic role, as it reflects the rich cultural heritage of Korea, with Hangul being recognized by UNESCO as a Memory of the World. The Choseong Mieum character contributes to the accurate representation and preservation of Korean literature, historical documents, and modern digital communication within the Korean language.
