Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ⷷ has the Unicode code point U+2DF7. 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+2DF7 to binary:
00101101 11110111. 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 10110111

Description
The Unicode character U+2DF7, also known as the COMBINING CYRILLIC LETTER IE, is a specialized typographical element primarily used in digital text for Cyrillic scripts. In its typical usage, it functions as a diacritical mark to modify the base letter it combines with, altering its sound or meaning according to the rules of the specific Cyrillic alphabet. U+2DF7 is particularly significant in the Russian and Ukrainian languages, where it serves to indicate the distinctive pronunciation of certain words that feature the letter IE. This character showcases the versatility and complexity of Unicode in representing a wide array of languages and scripts, allowing for accurate digital communication across diverse linguistic contexts.
