Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character Ꮵ has the Unicode code point U+13E5. 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+13E5 to binary:
00010011 11100101
. 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 10100101

Description
The Unicode character U+13E5, known as CHEROKEE LETTER TSI, is an essential glyph in the Cherokee script. It represents the consonant sound /t͡ɕi/ in this Native American language spoken primarily by the Cherokee people of North America. In digital text, U+13E5 enables accurate representation and communication of Cherokee language content, thereby preserving its linguistic heritage and facilitating cultural exchange. The character's inclusion in Unicode highlights the importance of supporting diverse scripts and languages for global information interchange. As part of the Cherokee script, which is written from left to right, U+13E5 contributes to the orthographic system that has been continuously evolving since its earliest written form in the 1800s.
