Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ん has the Unicode code point U+3093. 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+3093 to binary:
00110000 10010011. 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:
11100011 10000010 10010011

Description
The Unicode character U+3093 represents the "Hiragana Letter N" (ヌ), a fundamental element in the Japanese writing system of Hiragana. This script is widely used alongside Katakana for native Japanese text, while Kanji characters from Chinese origin are employed for more formal or complex communication. U+3093's typical usage in digital text includes its role in forming words and phrases within the context of the Japanese language. It contributes to the fluidity of reading and writing in this language by representing both consonant and vowel sounds, which enhances the overall understanding of the text. In terms of cultural significance, Hiragana has been an integral part of Japanese culture for centuries, shaping the way people communicate in their daily lives. U+3093, along with other Hiragana characters, demonstrates the technical aspect of Unicode's efforts to standardize the representation of text across different platforms and devices, facilitating global communication.
