Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ғ has the Unicode code point U+0493. 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+0493 to binary:
00000100 10010011
. 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
The character U+0493, known as CYRILLIC SMALL LETTER GHE WITH STROKE, plays a crucial role in digital text representation of the Cyrillic script. It is primarily used in several Slavic languages such as Russian, Belarusian, Bulgarian and Ukrainian where it represents a specific sound or phoneme. This particular letter has a unique feature - the stroke - which distinguishes it from the standard GHE (U+0433) and adds to its cultural significance in these linguistic contexts. The character's accurate representation is important for maintaining the integrity of digital text, particularly in transcription and translation efforts involving these languages.
