Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ֫ has the Unicode code point U+05AB. In UTF-8, it is encoded using 2 bytes because its codepoint is in the range of
0x0080to0x07ff.
Therefore we know that the UTF-8 encoding will be done over 11 bits within the final 16 bits and that it will have the format:110xxxxx 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+05AB to binary:
00000101 10101011. 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:
11010110 10101011

Description
The Unicode character U+05AB, known as the Hebrew Accent Ole, is a crucial element in digital typography, particularly for Hebrew language texts. Its primary role lies in modifying vowels in the Hebrew script, offering readers a more accurate pronunciation and understanding of the text. The accent serves as a crucial tool in helping to distinguish between words that might otherwise look similar but have different meanings or pronunciations. The character's cultural significance is profound, as it aids in preserving the rich linguistic heritage of Hebrew language literature and religious texts. Furthermore, its utilization transcends geographical borders, bridging the gap among diverse Hebrew-speaking communities worldwide. In technical terms, the Hebrew Accent Ole is part of the Unicode Standard, which is a fundamental coding system for computers to interpret text across different languages and platforms. U+05AB's accurate representation contributes to the seamless interaction between digital systems and users reading or writing in Hebrew. Through its role in modifying vowels, U+05AB ensures that the richness of Hebrew language's phonetics is accurately conveyed digitally, thereby playing a pivotal part in preserving linguistic integrity and cultural identity across diverse digital platforms.
