Description

U+1178, or Hangul Jungseong Ya-O, is a crucial component of the Korean writing system, Hangul. It serves as a consonant in this phonetic script, which was developed during the 15th century under the direction of King Sejong the Great. As one of the essential elements in Hangul, U+1178 contributes to the formation of various syllables and words by combining with other Hangul characters called Jungsung and Choseongs. The unique structure of Hangul allows for easy learning and pronunciation by beginners, which has contributed to its widespread use in South Korea and North Korea. In digital text, U+1178 is rendered as '야' or '야', enabling seamless communication and expression in the Korean language across various platforms and devices.

How to type the symbol on Windows

Hold Alt and type 4472 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+1178. 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+1178 to binary: 00010001 01111000. 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 10000101 10111000
