Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ᇂ has the Unicode code point U+11C2. 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+11C2 to binary:
00010001 11000010
. 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 10000111 10000010

Description
U+11C2 is a character from the Unicode Standard, representing Hangul Jongseong Hieuh (ᄲ). In digital text, this character serves as part of the Korean alphabet system, which comprises Hangul letters, Jongseong consonants, and Jamo elements. The Korean alphabet is primarily used for writing the Korean language, which is spoken by millions across South Korea, North Korea, and various Korean communities worldwide. The Jongseong Hieuh character is an essential element in constructing native Korean words, as it combines with other Hangul consonants to create syllable blocks known as Segyeol or Jeontong. This specific Jongseong carries a unique phonetic value, contributing the "h" sound when used in combination with Jamo elements. In this manner, U+11C2 is indispensable for accurate and effective communication within Korean linguistic and cultural contexts.
