Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ڿ has the Unicode code point U+06BF. 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+06BF to binary:
00000110 10111111
. 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:
11011010 10111111

Description
U+06BF is the Unicode code point for Arabic Letter Tcheh with Dot Above (عّ). This character plays a significant role in digital text, particularly in the Arabic script, which utilizes an abjad system. The dot above the letter indicates that it is a "tashkeel" mark, which alters the pronunciation of a word when used. The Tcheh with Dot Above (عّ) specifically denotes a long vowel in certain linguistic contexts, making it an essential component for accurate translation and transcription of Arabic texts. It is integral to the accurate representation of the language in digital spaces, contributing to the understanding and preservation of Arabic culture and literature worldwide.
