Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ᭀ has the Unicode code point U+1B40. 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+1B40 to binary:
00011011 01000000. 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 10101101 10000000

Description
U+1B40 is the Unicode code point for Balinese vowel sign taling tedung (᮴), a character primarily used in digital text representation of the Balinese script, an abugida writing system native to Bali, Indonesia. In this script, each character represents a consonant with an inherent vowel, and the specific vowels are modified using diacritics like the taling tedung. The taling tedung diacritic is placed above the consonant to change its inherent vowel from 'a' to 'u'. This character plays a crucial role in preserving Balinese language and cultural heritage through accurate digital text representation, aiding in the creation of electronic documents, websites, mobile applications, and other digital media that utilize the Balinese script. Its use contributes to maintaining linguistic diversity and fostering cultural understanding by representing the unique phonetic and orthographic characteristics of the Balinese language in a standardized and globally recognized format.
