Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ̡ has the Unicode code point U+0321. 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+0321 to binary:
00000011 00100001
. 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:
11001100 10100001

Description
U+0321 is the Unicode code point for the character COMBINING PALATALIZED HOOK BELOW. In digital text, this character is typically used in conjunction with other characters to create specific accents or diacritics, particularly in the context of certain languages that employ palatalized sounds. Its primary role is to represent a hook-like symbol placed below the base character, which alters the sound and pronunciation when combined. While it may not be widely used in everyday digital communication, its significance lies in its ability to contribute to accurate representation of specific linguistic nuances and dialects.
