Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ͝ has the Unicode code point U+035D. In UTF-8, it is encoded using 2 bytes because its codepoint is in the range of
0x0080
to0x07ff
.
Therefore we know that the UTF-8 encoding will be done over 11 bits within the final 16 bits and that it will have the format:110xxxxx 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+035D to binary:
00000011 01011101
. 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:
11001101 10011101

Description
The Unicode character U+035D, COMBINING DOUBLE BREVE, is a diacritical mark used in typography to modify the appearance of base characters in digital text. Its primary role is to be combined with another character to alter its pronunciation or representation in certain languages and scripts. The COMBINING DOUBLE BREVE is a rare glyph that is not widely used, as it serves a specialized purpose within specific linguistic contexts. It is part of the Unicode Standard, which aims to provide a unique code for every character, symbol, or emoji, enabling accurate and consistent representation across different digital platforms. Although its usage is limited, the COMBINING DOUBLE BREVE plays an essential role in ensuring correct pronunciation and understanding in languages that utilize this diacritic.
