Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ݓ has the Unicode code point U+0753. In UTF-8, it is encoded using 2 bytes because its codepoint is in the range of
0x0080
to0x07ff
.
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 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+0753 to binary:
00000111 01010011
. 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
The Unicode character U+0753 represents the Arabic letter "به" (Beh with Three Dots Pointing Upwards Below and Two Dots Above). This specific character is predominantly used in digital text for representing a modified form of the Beh letter in certain types of Arabic script. The typical usage of this character is found within the context of Arabic language, particularly when using variations of the Muhaqqaq script or other specialized forms of Arabic calligraphy. In these scripts, the U+0753 character can be used to denote a distinct pronunciation, as well as differentiate between words that may have similar spellings in standard Arabic script. The presence of three dots pointing upwards below and two dots above the main body of the Beh letter lends a unique aesthetic appeal and additional linguistic nuance to the character's usage within these specialized scripts, showcasing the rich cultural heritage and diversity found within Arabic typography.
