Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ⺫ has the Unicode code point U+2EAB. 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+2EAB to binary:
00101110 10101011. 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:
11100010 10111010 10101011

Description
The Unicode character U+2EAB is known as the CJK Radical Eye. It primarily serves a functional role within the CJK Unified Ideographs Extension, which includes characters from Chinese, Japanese, Korean, and other East Asian languages. In these languages, it is often used as part of a larger character or compound ideogram. Although its usage in digital text may seem limited due to its rarity outside of specific linguistic contexts, the CJK Radical Eye contributes to the richness and complexity of written communication within these languages. As Unicode's mission is to ensure the accurate representation of text from all languages, U+2EAB remains an important character in facilitating cultural, linguistic, and technical understanding across the world.
