Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ҁ has the Unicode code point U+0481. 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+0481 to binary:
00000100 10000001
. 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 Unicode character U+0481 represents the Cyrillic small letter KOPPA (គ). This character is primarily used in digital texts to convey the sound value "k" in Cyrillic alphabets, such as Russian, Belarusian, and Bulgarian. In these languages, it follows the small letter SHORT U (U+047A) and precedes the small letter YERU (U+0483). The KOPPA letter has a notable cultural, linguistic, and technical context, as it is essential for accurate transcription and translation of texts in these languages. It plays a crucial role in preserving the phonetic and orthographic structure of these languages, which are written from left to right. U+0481 Cyrillic small letter KOPPA is an indispensable component of modern typography and digital text processing systems that support these languages.
