Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ԑ has the Unicode code point U+0511. 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+0511 to binary:
00000101 00010001
. 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+0511 is the Unicode code point for "CYRILLIC SMALL LETTER REVERSED ZE." It is a specific character in the Cyrillic script, which is used to represent sounds in various Slavic and non-Slavic languages. This character, Reversed Ze, is part of the Russian language's extended alphabet, where it often represents the sound /ʒ/, similar to the English 'z' but with a more pronounced palatal quality. In digital text, U+0511 plays an essential role in maintaining linguistic accuracy and facilitating clear communication among Russian speakers. The character's reversed form (compared to the standard Ze) contributes to the rich diversity of the Cyrillic script, providing distinct visual cues that help differentiate words with similar sounds. Overall, U+0511 is a crucial component in preserving the integrity and expressiveness of Russian language, making it indispensable for accurate text rendering in digital environments.
