Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ჲ has the Unicode code point U+10F2. 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+10F2 to binary:
00010000 11110010. 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 10000011 10110010

Description
The Georgian letter Hie (U+10F2) holds a significant position in the digital representation of the Georgian script, which is encoded in Unicode to ensure accurate text rendering and exchange across various platforms. This character plays a vital role in the expression of the Kartvelian language family, specifically within the Mkhedruli variant of the Georgian alphabet, widely used in written communication today. The Hie character was introduced as part of the Unicode 6.0 standard in 2010, making it one of the more recent additions to the expansive collection of digital typography. As a crucial component of the Georgian script, U+10F2 contributes to preserving and fostering the rich cultural heritage of Georgia, a country with a long history and unique linguistic identity in the Caucasus region.
