Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ᬈ has the Unicode code point U+1B08. In UTF-8, it is encoded using 3 bytes because its codepoint is in the range of
0x0800to0xffff.
Therefore we know that the UTF-8 encoding will be done over 16 bits within the final 24 bits and that it will have the format:1110xxxx 10xxxxxx 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+1B08 to binary:
00011011 00001000. 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:
11100001 10101100 10001000

Description
U+1B08, known as the Balinese Letter Ikara Tedung, is a typographical character primarily used in digital text within the Balinese script. This script is predominantly employed for writing the Balinese language, which is spoken by millions of people in Bali, Indonesia. In its cultural and linguistic context, the Balinese script is an abugida system that consists of 17 vowel-consonant units known as 'akur' or 'brama.' U+1B08, specifically, represents a consonant followed by the vowel 'a,' with its primary position in the text being in the second to last place in an akur sequence. The Balinese Letter Ikara Tedung is essential for maintaining linguistic accuracy and continuity in written communication within the Balinese language and contributes significantly to preserving the cultural heritage of Bali.
