Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ᆩ has the Unicode code point U+11A9. In UTF-8, it is encoded using 3 bytes because its codepoint is in the range of
0x0800to0xffff.
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 thexare 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+11A9 to binary:
00010001 10101001. 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 10000110 10101001

Description
The character U+11A9, known as Hangul Jongseong Ssangkiyek, is a crucial component of the Korean writing system, Hangul. As a jongseong (middle consonant), it plays a vital role in determining the pronunciation and meaning of words within digital text. In Hangul's phonetic structure, Jongseongs are placed before vowels to create syllables, which then combine to form words. The Hangul script is known for its logical simplicity and phonetic clarity, making it easy to learn and use. U+11A9 contributes to this ease of use by serving as a fundamental building block in the Korean language's orthography. In addition to its linguistic significance, U+11A9's inclusion within the Unicode Standard ensures that digital text can be accurately rendered across various platforms and devices, fostering greater accessibility and interoperability for users of the Korean language worldwide.
