Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ʡ has the Unicode code point U+02A1. 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+02A1 to binary:
00000010 10100001. 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 Unicode character U+02A1, known as the "Latin Letter Glottal Stop with Stroke," is a typographical symbol that is not commonly used in digital text. It represents a glottal stop sound, which occurs when the flow of air through the vocal tract is interrupted by closing the vocal folds and then releasing them suddenly. This character is part of the Unicode Standard, a coding system designed to represent characters from all written languages worldwide. While it does not have widespread usage in everyday communication or text messaging, its presence in the Unicode set signifies that it can be used for specific purposes such as linguistic research, typography, or illustrative examples. The Latin Letter Glottal Stop with Stroke is an example of how Unicode aims to cover a broad range of characters and symbols from various languages and cultures, ensuring accurate representation and communication in digital text.
