Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ᬦ has the Unicode code point U+1B26. 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+1B26 to binary:
00011011 00100110. 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 10100110

Description
The Unicode character U+1B26, known as BALINESE LETTER NA, is a crucial component in the Balinese language's script. In digital text, it serves to represent the consonant 'na' in the Balinese script, which is used primarily for written communication in Bali, Indonesia. As an integral part of this unique and ancient script, U+1B26 contributes to preserving the rich cultural heritage and linguistic nuances of the Balinese people. The Balinese script, which has a strong connection with traditional Hindu-Balinese culture and religion, is primarily used in religious texts, literature, and daily communication among native speakers. Furthermore, this character, like other characters in the Balinese script, follows a syllabic writing system, where each character represents a syllable rather than a single sound or letter as in Latin alphabet-based scripts. This aspect of the Balinese script showcases the unique linguistic and cultural context of U+1B26 in digital text representation.
