Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ᆽ has the Unicode code point U+11BD. 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+11BD to binary:
00010001 10111101
. 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 10000110 10111101

Description
The Unicode character U+11BD represents HANGUL JONGSEONG CIEUC in the Korean alphabet. This particular jongseong, which is a component of the Hangul script used in the Korean language, serves as a consonant in word formation. In digital text, U+11BD is typically used to encode and display this specific sound in text-based applications, including websites, documents, and software interfaces that support the Korean language. As part of the Hangul system, which was created during the 15th century under the order of King Sejong the Great, U+11BD contributes to a writing system characterized by its phonetic structure and ease of learning, which has enabled the widespread use and popularity of Korean written communication.
