Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ִ has the Unicode code point U+05B4. 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+05B4 to binary:
00000101 10110100. 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 10110100

Description
The Unicode character U+05B4 represents the Hebrew letter "ה", also known as HIRIQ. In its typical usage, this character serves as a critical element in digital text within the Hebrew script, an Abjad writing system used primarily for the Modern Hebrew language and also for some liturgical languages such as Yiddish. U+05B4 plays a pivotal role in transmitting meaning and context through its positioning among other Hebrew characters. The character has significant cultural and linguistic importance, being one of the 22 letters that form the basis of the Hebrew alphabet, which dates back to the ancient Semitic alphabets. It is also used for technical purposes in digital encoding systems like Unicode to ensure accurate representation of the Hebrew language's textual information.
