Description

U+11E1, or Hangul Jongseong Mieum-Hieuh, is a crucial character within the Unicode standard, specifically in digital text that utilizes the Korean writing system. As part of the extended Hangul Jongseong group, this character serves an essential function in crafting complex consonant clusters in Korean words. It represents the initial consonant sound /m/ when followed by specific vowel or jungseong characters and can be combined with various jungseongs to form a wide range of sounds. The Unicode system ensures accurate representation and encoding of text in digital environments, which is crucial for maintaining the integrity of linguistic and cultural nuances within Korean language texts.

How to type the symbol on Windows

Hold Alt and type 4577 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+11E1. 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+11E1 to binary: 00010001 11100001. 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 10100001
