Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ᬜ has the Unicode code point U+1B1C. 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+1B1C to binary:
00011011 00011100. 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 10011100

Description
U+1B1C, the Balinese Letter NyA, is a typographic character used primarily in digital text within the Balinese script. This script is native to the Indonesian island of Bali and is part of the larger Javanese-Balinese language family. In its typical usage, the Balinese Letter NyA serves as an alphabetic symbol representing a specific consonant sound in the Balinese language. It carries significant cultural importance for the Balinese people, who use it to preserve their linguistic heritage and communicate through written text. The character is encoded in Unicode, which allows it to be consistently displayed and processed across various digital platforms and devices. While the technical aspects of U+1B1C might not be widely known to those outside the context of Balinese typography, its accurate representation within the Unicode system ensures that the rich linguistic history of the Balinese language can continue to thrive in the digital age.
