Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ⰹ has the Unicode code point U+2C39. 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+2C39 to binary:
00101100 00111001
. 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 10110000 10111001

Description
The Unicode character U+2C39 represents the Glagolitic Small Letter Izhe (ᰩ). Glagolitica is an ancient script that originated in the 9th century, primarily used for writing Old Church Slavonic and later adapted for various Slavic languages. U+2C39 plays a significant role in digital text, particularly in linguistic research, as it allows for accurate representation of Glagolitic texts within computer systems. Its inclusion in the Unicode Standard ensures preservation of cultural heritage and enables scholars to study and transcribe historical documents written in this unique script.
