Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character Ꮇ has the Unicode code point U+13B7. 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+13B7 to binary:
00010011 10110111. 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 10110111

Description
The Unicode character U+13B7 represents the Cherokee letter "LU" (Ꭵ), a unique symbol in the Cherokee syllabary. This syllabary was developed by Sequoyah, a Cherokee polymath, between 1809 and 1821. It is used in digital text to transcribe the Cherokee language, which is spoken by the Cherokee people native to parts of the United States. The Cherokee syllabary is composed of 86 distinct characters, each representing a consonant-vowel syllable, enabling efficient writing and communication in their language. U+13B7 holds significant cultural and linguistic importance as it contributes to the preservation and promotion of the Cherokee language and culture.
