Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character Ԝ has the Unicode code point U+051C. In UTF-8, it is encoded using 2 bytes because its codepoint is in the range of
0x0080to0x07ff.
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 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+051C to binary:
00000101 00011100. 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:

Description
U+051C is the Unicode code point for the Cyrillic Capital Letter We (В), a character primarily used in the Russian language and other East Slavic languages such as Ukrainian and Belarusian. In digital text, this character serves its typical role of representing the initial consonant of words in these languages. The Cyrillic script, which encompasses this character, has been historically significant in many cultures due to its use in various languages throughout Eastern Europe and Russia. With its origins dating back to the 9th century, the Cyrillic script has played a critical role in preserving and transmitting cultural heritage and literary tradition. Today, U+051C remains an essential part of modern digital communication and information exchange for Russian speakers worldwide.
