Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ᅪ has the Unicode code point U+116A. 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+116A to binary:
00010001 01101010
. 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 10000101 10101010

Description
U+116A Hangul Jungseong Wa is a vital component of the Korean script system, serving as a hangul jungseong character in digital text. As part of the Unified Hangul Code (UHC) standard adopted by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO), it represents one of 24 unique consonant-final characters in the modern Korean alphabet. U+116A specifically denotes the "wa" sound, which is a critical aspect of Korean phonetics and grammar. In digital text, the accurate representation of U+116A helps preserve the integrity of Korean language communication, enabling the seamless exchange of information between users who speak, read, or write in Korean. Furthermore, it ensures that linguistic nuances are maintained in various applications such as web content, mobile apps, and software that support Korean text.
