Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ᇞ has the Unicode code point U+11DE. 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+11DE to binary:
00010001 11011110
. 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 10011110

Description
U+11DE (Hangul Jongseong Mieum-ssangsios) is a crucial character in the Hangul writing system, which is used primarily for the Korean language. As a jongseong (조성) character, it serves as a final consonant in the syllable block of the Hangul script. In digital text, U+11DE functions to represent the initial sound of the following syllable block, specifically the "m" sound. This character is part of the wider Unicode standard, which aims to provide a unique code point for every character in every writing system worldwide. The Korean language and its script are significant culturally and linguistically, as they have evolved over centuries to become an integral aspect of Korean identity and heritage. U+11DE plays a vital role in preserving and promoting this rich cultural heritage through accurate digital representation.
