Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ӌ has the Unicode code point U+04CC. 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+04CC to binary:
00000100 11001100
. 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+04CC is a Unicode character representing the Cyrillic small letter khakassian che (Кх). This character is primarily used in digital text to represent the Cyrillic script of the Khamnigan, or Khamnigan-Balytsky dialect, which is spoken in the Khamnigan region of southern Siberia. The use of this character helps preserve and promote the cultural heritage of the Khakass people, while also aiding in the accurate representation of their language in digital formats. As part of the Cyrillic script, U+04CC has its roots in the traditional Russian alphabet, which has been expanded and adapted for various regional languages and dialects, showcasing the versatility of this writing system in linguistic applications.
