Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character Ꮲ has the Unicode code point U+13E2. 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+13E2 to binary:
00010011 11100010
. 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 10100010

Description
The Unicode character U+13E2 represents the Cherokee letter "Tlv" (टल्व). It is a part of the Cherokee script, which consists of 86 unique characters used to write the Cherokee language, an indigenous American language primarily spoken by the Cherokee people in the southeastern United States. In digital text, U+13E2 is utilized to accurately represent the phonetic and orthographic properties of the Cherokee letter Tlv, enabling precise communication in the Cherokee language within electronic documents, websites, and software applications that support Unicode text. This character holds significant cultural importance as it contributes to preserving and promoting the Cherokee language and its rich linguistic heritage. The Cherokee script is an example of a syllabary, where each character represents a syllable rather than a consonant-vowel pair like in alphabetic writing systems. This unique feature of the Cherokee script facilitates more efficient and accurate representation of spoken Cherokee language in written form.
