Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ᆧ has the Unicode code point U+11A7. 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+11A7 to binary:
00010001 10100111
. 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 10100111

Description
U+11A7, commonly known as Hangul Jungseong O-Yae, is a character found within the Unicode standard. This character plays an essential role in digital text, specifically within the Korean language system. It is utilized in the Hangul writing system to create syllables by combining with other Hangul characters called jungseong (middle consonants). Jungseong characters are significant as they represent a core component of the Hangul system's phonetic structure. The Hangul script, including U+11A7 and other Unicode characters, is known for its efficiency in representing vowels and consonants, which enables rapid learning and easy writing by native Korean speakers. Moreover, this efficient script contributes to the linguistic diversity of the Korean language and provides a strong cultural identity.
