Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ٲ has the Unicode code point U+0672. 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+0672 to binary:
00000110 01110010. 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:
11011001 10110010

Description
U+0672 (ARABIC LETTER ALEF WITH WAVY HAMZA ABOVE) is a character in the Arabic script that plays a crucial role in digital text communication, particularly within the Arabic language. This letter represents the sound 'a' or 'e' and its usage in both written and spoken forms is essential for conveying meaning and expression. The wavy hamza above the alef (U+0627) signifies an aspirated consonant, differentiating it from other phonetic variations within the Arabic language. This character's accurate representation in digital text is vital for maintaining linguistic integrity and cultural authenticity across various communication platforms and applications. It also serves to uphold technical correctness by ensuring the proper encoding of Arabic script in systems and software that utilize Unicode standards, thereby promoting inclusivity and effective information exchange between speakers of different languages and dialects.
