Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ֙ has the Unicode code point U+0599. 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+0599 to binary:
00000101 10011001. 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:

Description
The character U+0599, also known as HEBREW ACCENT PASHTA, plays a vital role in the realm of digital text. It is primarily used within the Hebrew language, where it serves to modify and give emphasis to specific vowels or syllables. Its primary function is phonetic in nature, helping to clarify pronunciation rules that may not be inherently clear from the consonantal script of the Hebrew alphabet. In terms of linguistic context, its usage aligns with the rich history and tradition of Hebrew literature, dating back thousands of years. From a technical standpoint, U+0599 is part of the Unicode Standard, which ensures that text produced in different technologies can be reliably translated across various platforms. This standard, developed to accommodate the vast array of characters found in human languages, provides a uniform system for encoding and displaying these characters. In the case of HEBREW ACCENT PASHTA, its inclusion in this standard reflects the global recognition of Hebrew as one of the oldest continuously used writing systems and a language spoken by millions worldwide. Overall, U+0599 demonstrates the diversity within digital text, highlighting the significance of accent marks and their role in enhancing communication and understanding across different languages. This character, like others in its class, is a testament to the ongoing evolution of human language and our efforts to represent it accurately in the digital realm.
