Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ᷳ has the Unicode code point U+1DF3. 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+1DF3 to binary:
00011101 11110011. 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 10110111 10110011

Description
U+1DF3 is the Unicode code point for the COMBINING LATIN SMALL LETTER O WITH DIAERESIS character. This typographical element is used in digital text to combine with other characters, particularly uppercase or lowercase Latin letters, and create a single glyph that incorporates both the base character and the diacritical mark, the diaeresis (or umlaut). It is commonly employed in various languages such as German, Swedish, Norwegian, and Finnish to represent specific vowel sounds or pronunciations. The combination of letters can include any Latin uppercase or lowercase letter with an accented 'o' sound, leading to unique spellings and words that might not be represented by the base character alone. The use of this combining character contributes to accuracy and clarity in digital text representation, especially in linguistic contexts where diacritics play a significant role in meaning differentiation.
