Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ݰ has the Unicode code point U+0770. 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+0770 to binary:
00000111 01110000
. 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+0770 is the Unicode character code for the Arabic letter Seen with Small Arabic Letter Tah and Two Dots (Arabic: شُن), a glyph used primarily in digital text. In Arabic typography, this letter represents an aspirated "sh" sound, which is essential for accurate pronunciation of Arabic words and proper comprehension of their meanings. The combination of the Seen character with Small Arabic Letter Tah and Two Dots adds a diacritical mark to the base Seen character, providing additional information about its pronunciation or the surrounding text's context. This Unicode character is crucial for preserving cultural and linguistic integrity when digitizing, translating, or displaying Arabic texts across various platforms and devices. By accurately representing these characters in digital media, U+0770 ensures that Arabic language content remains clear, precise, and accessible to a global audience.
