Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ⻬ has the Unicode code point U+2EEC. 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+2EEC to binary:
00101110 11101100
. 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:

Description
U+2EEC is a Unicode character representing CJK RADICAL C-SIMPLIFIED EVEN (ゥ). In digital text, this character serves as a radical in the Chinese script, specifically for indicating even numbers in traditional Chinese writing systems. This character is part of the larger set of CJK (Chinese, Japanese, and Korean) radicals, which are used to help categorize characters by their meanings and usage. The CJK RADICAL C-SIMPLIFIED EVEN ゥ is primarily used in traditional Chinese text, where it distinguishes between even and odd numbers in certain contexts. While it may not be commonly used in modern digital texts due to simplification efforts, its presence still holds historical significance and demonstrates the rich cultural and linguistic heritage of the CJK writing systems.
