Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character Ꮊ has the Unicode code point U+13BA. 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+13BA to binary:
00010011 10111010. 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 10111010

Description
The Unicode character U+13BA represents the Cherokee letter "Me" (Ꭾ), which is one of 85 characters in the Cherokee script used for writing the Cherokee language, a native American Indian language spoken primarily by the Cherokee people. This character typically plays a significant role in digital text as it facilitates accurate representation and transmission of the Cherokee language in digital platforms and applications. The Cherokee script, which comprises 86 letters, is unique in that each letter represents both a consonant and an inherent vowel sound, making it a syllabary. As such, U+13BA contributes to the preservation and promotion of Cherokee culture and language, which has historical and linguistic significance in North America.
