Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ᆆ has the Unicode code point U+1186. 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+1186 to binary:
00010001 10000110
. 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 10000110

Description
The Unicode character U+1186, Hangul Jungseong Yo-Yeo, is a vital component of the Hangul writing system used in the Korean language. It represents a consonant-vowel syllable block in digital text, playing a crucial role in accurately rendering and transcribing spoken Korean into written form. Hangul, which consists of 144 basic characters called jungseong (constituent elements) and 10,355 possible combinations of these with vowels known as jamo or "building blocks," enables efficient text input and manipulation in digital environments. U+1186 contributes to the linguistic richness and cultural heritage of the Korean language, a widely spoken dialect group within the larger East Asian region.
