Description

U+1108 Hangul Choseong Ssangpieup is a unique character within the Korean writing system. It plays a crucial role in digital text by representing a specific phoneme and contributing to the overall structure of words. In Hangul, consonants are categorized into different types based on their position and the following vowel, which is where Choseong Ssangpieup comes into play. This character is part of the initial consonant cluster, also known as Choseong, in the Korean alphabet system. The use of Choseong characters helps to distinguish between similar-sounding words by providing essential phonetic information. Furthermore, Hangul's design enables users to create new words and adapt to changing linguistic needs, making U+1108 an integral part of the rich Korean language and its digital representation.

How to type the symbol on Windows

Hold Alt and type 4360 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+1108. 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+1108 to binary: 00010001 00001000. 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:
    11100001 10000100 10001000
