Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character қ has the Unicode code point U+049B. 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+049B to binary:
00000100 10011011. 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+049B is the Unicode character code for Cyrillic Small Letter Ka with Descender, which is a letter from the Cyrillic script used in various languages such as Russian, Bulgarian, Serbian, and others. In digital text, this character is typically utilized to represent the Cyrillic "ка" sound, often found in words of Slavic origins. Its descender refers to the vertical stroke that extends below the main body of the letter, which can be seen in lowercase alphabetic characters of certain fonts. This unique feature of Cyrillic script helps distinguish it from other writing systems like Latin and Greek. The Cyrillic Small Letter Ka with Descender holds significant importance in linguistic and cultural contexts as it plays a vital role in the correct representation of words, names, and phrases in these languages. As digital communication continues to expand globally, ensuring accurate translation and display of characters such as U+049B becomes increasingly important for maintaining the integrity of the original text and preserving its intended meaning.
