Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ॓ has the Unicode code point U+0953. In UTF-8, it is encoded using 3 bytes because its codepoint is in the range of
0x0800to0xffff.
Therefore we know that the UTF-8 encoding will be done over 16 bits within the final 24 bits and that it will have the format:1110xxxx 10xxxxxx 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+0953 to binary:
00001001 01010011. 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:
11100000 10100101 10010011

Description
U+0953 is the Unicode code point for Devanagari grave accent (ड़). This character is used in the Devanagari script, which is predominantly employed to write the Hindi language. In digital text processing, it serves as a diacritical mark, indicating a change in the pronunciation or meaning of the base letter it modifies. Specifically, when combined with the Devanagari letter "ड" (De), the character represents the consonant "ड़". This sound is formed by slightly devoicing the "D" sound at the back of the throat, creating a distinctive phonetic quality in Hindi and other languages using the Devanagari script. The Devanagari grave accent plays an essential role in accurately conveying pronunciation and meaning in written text for these languages, contributing to clear and effective communication.
