Description

U+11D2 (HANGUL JONGSEONG RIEUL-MIEUM-SIOS) is a vital character in the Korean Hangul writing system. As a jongseong, it serves to modify the basic consonants called choesong, typically appearing after them to indicate various phonetic and grammatical aspects of words in the Korean language. The presence of this character contributes to the complexity and richness of the Korean script, which is known for its unique and efficient encoding system that employs a limited set of basic characters combined with diacritics to convey a wide range of sounds and meanings. In digital text, U+11D2 plays a significant role in representing Korean words accurately across different platforms and applications. Its precise usage is determined by the specific phonetic and grammatical contexts in which it appears, reflecting the dynamic nature of the Hangul writing system that allows users to express diverse linguistic nuances with relative ease. Despite its technical nature, U+11D2 has a cultural significance as part of the Hangul script, which was developed under the patronage of King Sejong the Great in the 15th century. The invention of Hangul represents a significant achievement in the history of human language and writing systems, contributing to the Korean identity and national pride.

How to type the symbol on Windows

Hold Alt and type 4562 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+11D2. 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+11D2 to binary: 00010001 11010010. 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 10010010
