Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ᨅ has the Unicode code point U+1A05. In UTF-8, it is encoded using 3 bytes because its codepoint is in the range of
0x0800
to0xffff
.
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 thex
are 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+1A05 to binary:
00011010 00000101
. 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 10101000 10000101

Description
U+1A05, the Buginese Letter Ba, is a character from the Unicode Standard that represents a specific letter in the Buginese script, which is used to write the Buginese language primarily spoken in South Sulawesi province of Indonesia. In digital text, its typical usage involves representing this particular phoneme or sound unit in Buginese, serving as an essential component for accurate translation and communication in the language. The Buginese script, which belongs to the Latin alphabet family, has been a part of Unicode since version 4.1.0, released in 2005, indicating its importance within the realm of linguistics and typography. The inclusion of U+1A05 (BUGINESE LETTER BA) and other characters from the Buginese script in the Unicode Standard has facilitated the representation of this endangered language on digital platforms, helping to preserve its cultural and linguistic heritage.
