Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ⶓ has the Unicode code point U+2D93. 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+2D93 to binary:
00101101 10010011. 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:
11100010 10110110 10010011

Description
The Unicode character U+2D93, ETHIOPIC SYLLABLE GGWA, is a vital component of the Ethiopic script, which is primarily used for writing Amharic, one of the major Semitic languages spoken in Ethiopia and Eritrea. In digital text, this character serves as a building block for forming words and sentences within the Ethiopic orthography system, much like alphabetic characters in Latin or other scripts. The Ethiopic script is unique in its syllabary structure, with each character representing a consonant-vowel pairing rather than a single sound as seen in most alphabets. U+2D93 specifically represents the syllable 'GGWA', which comprises the consonant 'G' and the vowel sequence 'WAA'. This enables writers to construct words and phrases that follow the rules of Ethiopic orthography, ensuring accurate communication in the Amharic language. As a vital element of the Ethiopic script, U+2D93 plays a crucial role in preserving and promoting Ethiopia's rich linguistic heritage and cultural identity.
