Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ⷣ has the Unicode code point U+2DE3. 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+2DE3 to binary:
00101101 11100011. 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 10110111 10100011

Description
U+2DE3 is the Unicode code point for COMBINING CYRILLIC LETTER DE, a special character used primarily in digital text for typographical purposes. In the Cyrillic script, which is used to write various languages such as Russian and Ukrainian, the letter "de" (Д) represents a consonant sound similar to the English "d." The COMBINING CYRILLIC LETTER DE character is often utilized in combination with other Cyrillic characters to create words or phrases. It plays a crucial role in preserving the integrity of text and facilitating accurate translations between languages that use the Cyrillic script. While it does not have any notable cultural, linguistic, or technical context outside of its usage within digital text, it remains an essential tool for typographers, linguists, and developers working with Cyrillic-based languages.
