Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ѥ has the Unicode code point U+0465. 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+0465 to binary:
00000100 01100101. 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:
11010001 10100101

Description
U+0465 is the Unicode character code for "CYRILLIC SMALL LETTER IOTIFIED E," commonly known as the "YERU" in the Cyrillic script. This letter is primarily used in digital text for languages that employ the Cyrillic alphabet, such as Russian, Ukrainian, and Belarusian. The iotified e (Е) with a small vertical stroke on its right side (known as the iotified or descending stroke) differentiates it from the regular capital E (Э) in these languages. In linguistic contexts, this letter represents the voiced palatal affricate sound /ɟ/, similar to the English 'j' sound. The Cyrillic script has been historically significant for its role in the cultural and religious development of various Slavic nations. Its technical usage is found in text encoding, where U+0465 ensures accurate representation of this letter in digital communication systems.
