Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ڝ has the Unicode code point U+069D. 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+069D to binary:
00000110 10011101. 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+069D is the Unicode code point for Arabic Letter Sad with Two Dots Below, a character used in the Arabic script. In digital text, this glyph serves as a visual representation of the Arabic letter 'ص' (Sad) when two dots are added below it. The addition of these two small dots below the letter alters its pronunciation and can change its meaning within the Arabic language. This character is essential for accurate communication and translation between speakers of various dialects of Arabic, as certain combinations of letters with diacritics have unique sounds and meanings. The cultural, linguistic, and technical context of U+069D lies in the rich history of the Arabic script and its ongoing evolution to accommodate the diverse needs of Arabic-speaking communities around the world.
