Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character Ყ has the Unicode code point U+1CA7. 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+1CA7 to binary:
00011100 10100111. 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 10100111

Description
U+1CA7 is a typographical character known as the Georgian Mtavruli Capital Letter Q'ara. It is a part of the Georgian script, which is one of the oldest writing systems in the world with roots dating back to the 5th century AD. The Georgian script has three distinct styles: Mkhedruli, Asomtavruli, and Nuskhuri, each with its own unique set of characters. Among these, Asomtavruli is the oldest style, while Mkhedruli is the most widely used today. U+1CA7, specifically, represents the Q'ara letter in the Asomtavruli script. This character is used to represent the consonant 'q' sound in digital text, and plays a crucial role in Georgian linguistics and literature. The use of this character helps maintain the cultural heritage and identity of the Georgian language, which is primarily spoken in Georgia but also has speakers in neighboring countries such as Russia, Turkey, and Ukraine.
