Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ࣅ has the Unicode code point U+08C5. In UTF-8, it is encoded using 3 bytes because its codepoint is in the range of
0x0800to0xffff.
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 thexare 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+08C5 to binary:
00001000 11000101. 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:
11100000 10100011 10000101

Description
U+08C5 Arabic Letter Jeem with Three Dots Above is a unique typographic character in the Unicode Standard, which serves as the universal encoding system for text across multiple languages and platforms. This specific character holds significant importance in digital texts that involve the Arabic language, particularly within informal or artistic contexts. The Arabic script is renowned for its aesthetic beauty and expressive nature, and U+08C5 contributes to this rich heritage through its distinct appearance, featuring three dots above the base letter Jeem (ج). These dots are indicative of a particular phonetic feature in some dialects of the Arabic language. In a broader cultural and linguistic context, U+08C5 is often used to represent an elongated pronunciation or a specific regional pronunciation of the consonant /j/, providing a vital tool for accurate transcription and communication within the Arabic-speaking world.
