Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character Ꮔ has the Unicode code point U+13C4. 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+13C4 to binary:
00010011 11000100. 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 10001111 10000100

Description
The Unicode character U+13C4 represents the Cherokee letter 'NU'. This specific character is part of the Cherokee syllabary, a set of 86 unique symbols used to represent the sounds of the Cherokee language. In digital text, it serves as an essential element in transcribing and translating the Cherokee language, which is indigenous to North America and primarily spoken by the Cherokee people living in the southeastern United States. The Cherokee syllabary was developed in the early 19th century by Sequoyah, a Cherokee tribal member who wanted to create a written form for his native language. U+13C4 plays a crucial role in preserving and promoting Cherokee culture and history, as well as facilitating communication among Cherokee speakers worldwide. In typography, it is essential to use the correct Unicode character when representing the 'NU' sound in Cherokee to ensure accurate transcription and maintain linguistic integrity.
