Description

The Unicode character U+11C8, known as Hangul Jongseong Nieun-Pansios, plays a significant role in digital text representing the Korean language. In the Hangul writing system, it serves as a jongseong (중소성), which are consonant-only syllable blocks used for constructing words in Korean. The Hangul Jongseong Nieun-Pansios specifically corresponds to the Korean consonant sound 'nieun' (냥), denoting the nasalized continuation of a word or phrase. This character is an essential component in typing and encoding text accurately, contributing to the proper representation of the Korean language within digital platforms and applications. With its inclusion in Unicode, U+11C8 Hangul Jongseong Nieun-Pansios supports the seamless communication of ideas and content for Korean speakers worldwide, thereby fostering linguistic diversity and cultural exchange on a global scale.

How to type the symbol on Windows

Hold Alt and type 4552 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+11C8. 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+11C8 to binary: 00010001 11001000. 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 10001000
