Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character Ꮂ has the Unicode code point U+13B2. 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+13B2 to binary:
00010011 10110010. 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 10001110 10110010

Description
The Unicode character U+13B2 is known as the Cherokee Letter Hv. In the digital text realm, it serves a crucial role in representing the Cherokee language, which is part of the larger Iroquoian language family. Its typical usage is to express distinct phonetic and phonological aspects of the Cherokee language. The Cherokee writing system is unique as it employs an 85-character syllabary, each character representing a syllable rather than a letter or sound like the Roman alphabet. As for its cultural context, the Cherokee syllabary was developed by Sequoyah in the early 19th century, marking a significant milestone in the preservation and promotion of the Cherokee language and culture. Today, U+13B2 and other characters in the Unicode standard continue to facilitate digital communication in the Cherokee language, bridging technological advancements with linguistic heritage.
