Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ݕ has the Unicode code point U+0755. In UTF-8, it is encoded using 2 bytes because its codepoint is in the range of
0x0080to0x07ff.
Therefore we know that the UTF-8 encoding will be done over 11 bits within the final 16 bits and that it will have the format:110xxxxx 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+0755 to binary:
00000111 01010101. 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:

Description
U+0755 is the Unicode code point for "ARABIC LETTER BEH WITH INVERTED SMALL V BELOW". It is a character used in Arabic script and digital text, specifically serving as a diacritic mark for certain Arabic letters. In the context of linguistics and typography, this character is an example of a "beh" with an inverted small "v" below it, which can be utilized to modify or alter the pronunciation of a word in the Arabic language. The use of diacritics like U+0755 in digital text allows for greater accuracy and clarity in conveying meaning within the Arabic script, as they indicate changes in vowel sounds or other phonetic nuances that might not be immediately apparent from the consonants alone. In terms of cultural significance, the use of such diacritical marks underscores the importance of precision and nuance in Arabic language communication, reflecting a deep-rooted history of linguistic refinement within Middle Eastern cultures.
