Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ⰿ has the Unicode code point U+2C3F. 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+2C3F to binary:
00101100 00111111. 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 10111111

Description
The Unicode character U+2C3F, known as the Glagolitic Small Letter Myslite, plays a significant role in digital typography, particularly within the realm of Slavonic languages. This specific character is essential for maintaining linguistic and cultural authenticity when transcribing texts from the Glagolitic script, which was developed in the 9th century by Cyril and Methodius for translating religious texts into Slavonic languages. U+2C3F is part of a larger set of characters that make up this ancient writing system, which predates the more commonly used Cyrillic script. By incorporating Glagolitic Small Letter Myslite in digital text, users can maintain historical accuracy and contextual relevance when working with texts from this unique period in the development of Slavonic languages.
