Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character Ჽ has the Unicode code point U+1CBD. In UTF-8, it is encoded using 3 bytes because its codepoint is in the range of
0x0800
to0xffff
.
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 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+1CBD to binary:
00011100 10111101
. 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:
11100001 10110010 10111101

Description
U+1CBD, known as the Georgian Mtavruli Capital Letter Aen, is a unique character from the Georgian script, Mtavruli. This alphabet has been in use since the 5th century AD and is of significant historical importance due to its association with ancient Georgia. The Mtavruli script was primarily employed for religious texts and inscriptions on stone monuments, reflecting its rich cultural heritage. In digital text, U+1CBD serves as a typographical representation of this unique character, allowing users and developers to incorporate Georgian language content into their work accurately. Although not commonly utilized in modern day written Georgian, the Mtavruli script remains an important aspect of the nation's linguistic history and cultural identity.
