Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ᄙ has the Unicode code point U+1119. 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+1119 to binary:
00010001 00011001
. 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 10011001

Description
U+1119 (HANGUL CHOSEONG SSANGRIEUL) is a unique character within the Unicode Standard, specifically in the area of digital typography. In its typical usage, it serves as a consonant in the Hangul script, a writing system used predominantly for the Korean language. As one of the 1939 Hangul Jamo characters, it is part of a group of individual letters that can be combined in various ways to form syllables, which are then utilized to construct words. In terms of linguistic context, the Hangul script is known for its phonetic consistency and systematic construction, making it an ideal system for learning Korean as a second language. The character U+1119 (HANGUL CHOSEONG SSANGRIEUL) specifically represents the sound "s" when combined with other Jamo characters to form a syllable. This enables accurate representation of various Korean words in digital text, facilitating communication and preserving the integrity of the language in the digital realm. From a technical standpoint, Unicode provides an essential standard for digital typography by ensuring that all characters, including U+1119 (HANGUL CHOSEONG SSANGRIEUL), are uniquely identified and can be reliably displayed across various platforms and devices. This uniformity is crucial for the accurate representation of texts in different languages and scripts, fostering global communication and understanding.
