Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ⴏ has the Unicode code point U+2D0F. 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+2D0F to binary:
00101101 00001111
. 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 10110100 10001111

Description
The character U+2D0F, known as the Georgian Small Letter Zhareli (ქ), holds a significant position within the Georgian script system. As one of 38 unique letters in the Mkhedruli alphabet, it is widely employed in digital text to represent the phonetic value /ʒ/. This letter is utilized specifically for denoting the postalveolar fricative sound in the Georgian language, a key element that distinguishes it from other Latin or Cyrillic-based scripts. In terms of linguistic context, U+2D0F plays an essential role in transmitting the richness and complexity of the Georgian language. The script is deeply rooted in the history of Georgia, a country located at the crossroads of Eastern Europe and Western Asia, and reflects the influences from various historical periods. This character has been used to write both Old and Modern Georgian, showcasing its enduring cultural significance. From a technical standpoint, U+2D0F is part of the Unicode Standard, which aims to provide a unique code for every character, symbol, or emoji across different languages and platforms. This ensures the accurate representation and encoding of text in digital environments, promoting seamless communication between diverse cultures and languages online.
