Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ᇍ has the Unicode code point U+11CD. 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+11CD to binary:
00010001 11001101
. 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 10001101

Description
The character U+11CD is a Hangul Jongseong Rieul-Nieun, a key component of the Korean writing system. In digital text, it serves as a crucial building block for constructing various complex syllables or jongseongs in the Hangul script. Its role is significant as it enables the representation of a variety of consonants in the Korean language. U+11CD specifically represents the consonant sound "R" when combined with a vowel to form a syllable block. This character, like other Hangul Jongseongs, is part of the Unified Hangul Code (UHC) system introduced in 2000, which aims at standardizing and simplifying the encoding of Hangul characters to improve compatibility across digital platforms. The Hangul script itself is a crucial part of Korean culture and linguistics, showcasing its unique characteristics while being efficient and phonetic in nature.
