Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ң has the Unicode code point U+04A3. 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+04A3 to binary:
00000100 10100011. 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:
11010010 10100011

Description
U+04A3 is a Cyrillic small letter en with descender character used primarily in the Russian language. It represents the consonant /n/ in the Latin alphabet, which is a voiced velar nasal sound. This character is vital in digital text for accurate representation of written content, especially in transcriptions or translations from Cyrillic to Latin script. The descender in this character denotes the lower part that extends below the baseline, making it distinct from other similar characters such as U+0403 (CYRILLIC SMALL LETTER EN) and U+04A4 (CYRILLIC SMALL LETTER YERU). In terms of cultural, linguistic, or technical context, this character is essential for accurate representation of Russian language in digital formats, including websites, documents, and software applications. By ensuring the accurate use of this character, we can promote better understanding and communication across languages that employ different scripts.
