Description

The Unicode character U+11E8, known as Hangul Jongseong Sios-Tikeut, plays a crucial role in digital text representation for the Korean language. It is part of the Hangul Jongseong set, which includes various consonant components used to construct syllables in the Korean writing system. The character is a jongseong, specifically representing the "sios-tikeut" sound, and is typically utilized in conjunction with a jungseong (vowel) and a jhamgeup (consonant) to form a complete syllable block in Hangul script. In digital text, the use of U+11E8 ensures that written Korean accurately represents its spoken counterpart, preserving both linguistic and cultural context. The accuracy of this character's usage is essential for maintaining proper syntax and meaning within the Korean language, reflecting the importance of typography in digital text representation.

How to type the symbol on Windows

Hold Alt and type 4584 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+11E8. 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+11E8 to binary: 00010001 11101000. 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 10101000
