Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ᷊ has the Unicode code point U+1DCA. 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+1DCA to binary:
00011101 11001010. 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 10001010

Description
U+1DCA, the COMBINING LATIN SMALL LETTER R BELOW, is a unique character in the Unicode standard. Typically used in digital text, this glyph serves as a modifier that appears below the Latin small letter 'r', combining with it to create an accentuated form of the letter. Its primary role is to provide a visual representation that aligns with certain linguistic or cultural requirements, often seen in languages such as Spanish, Portuguese, and French, where accents on vowels are commonplace for indicating different pronunciations or meanings. The COMBINING LATIN SMALL LETTER R BELOW contributes to the accurate representation of text and preservation of linguistic nuances, enhancing readability and facilitating communication in digital platforms that support Unicode standards.
