Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ᆜ has the Unicode code point U+119C. 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+119C to binary:
00010001 10011100
. 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 10011100

Description
U+119C HANGUL JUNGSEONG I-EU is a character from the Unicode standard, which is widely used for encoding text in digital formats. In the Korean language, it represents one of the numerous jungseong (종성) characters, which are used to create syllable blocks in the Hangul writing system. Each jungseong is combined with a consonant and vowel counterpart called a jamo (자모), forming a complete syllable block known as a jung-eup (중잠). This particular character serves as an important component in constructing Korean words, enabling the intricate and expressive nature of the language. Hangul is renowned for its phonetic consistency and ease of learning, attributes that have made it a significant cultural achievement in Korea. The use of U+119C HANGUL JUNGSEONG I-EU, along with other Unicode characters, contributes to the accurate and efficient representation of Korean text on digital platforms.
