Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ն has the Unicode code point U+0576. 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+0576 to binary:
00000101 01110110. 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:
11010101 10110110

Description
The Unicode character U+0576, known as ARMENIAN SMALL LETTER NOW (ჲ), plays a significant role in digital text representation for the Armenian language. As part of the Armenian script, it is used to represent the phoneme /n/ in various words and syllables. The Armenian alphabet, which consists of 36 letters, is one of the oldest writing systems in the world and has been used since the 5th century AD. ARMENIAN SMALL LETTER NOW contributes to the rich cultural heritage of the Armenian language and allows for accurate digital text representation of ancient and modern works in this linguistic domain. The Unicode standard ensures that characters like U+0576 can be consistently used, displayed, and encoded across different platforms, systems, and software, promoting global communication and preserving the unique characteristics of languages with distinct scripts.
