Description

The Unicode character U+11FD, HANGUL JONGSEONG KIYEOK-KHIEUKH, is a crucial element in the Korean language's writing system. It primarily serves as a jongseong, one of three types of consonants in the Hangul script. This particular character contributes to creating syllables in words when combined with a vowel, resulting in a wide range of potential words and phrases. In digital text, U+11FD is used extensively in applications that support the Korean language, such as word processors, web browsers, and mobile devices. This character's presence allows for accurate and efficient communication in Korean, which is spoken by millions worldwide. Culturally, the Hangul script and its characters, including U+11FD, have deep historical roots in Korea. Developed during the 15th century under the ruling of King Sejong the Great, Hangul was designed to make literacy accessible to the common people, replacing the previously used Chinese characters. This democratization of written communication played a significant role in the development and spread of Korean literature, language, and culture. From a technical standpoint, U+11FD is part of the Unicode Standard, which aims to represent all characters from every written language in the world. The Unicode Standard's comprehensive nature allows for global communication and information exchange, further emphasizing the importance of Hangul JONGSEONG KIYEOK-KHIEUKH character U+11FD and other characters within the Korean language's script.

How to type the symbol on Windows

Hold Alt and type 4605 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+11FD. 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+11FD to binary: 00010001 11111101. 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 10000111 10111101
