Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ҋ has the Unicode code point U+048B. 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+048B to binary:
00000100 10001011
. 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+048B represents the Cyrillic small letter short I with tail (Ḳ), which is a unique letter in the Cyrillic script used primarily for Russian and other Slavic languages. This character, specifically, features an additional stroke at the bottom that distinguishes it from the standard Cyrillic short I (И). Its typical usage in digital text lies within its intended linguistic context, serving as a crucial component of words and phrases in these languages. In the realm of typography and digital text processing, U+048B plays an essential role in accurately representing and preserving the original form and meaning of written works composed in Cyrillic scripts.
