Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ʜ has the Unicode code point U+029C. 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+029C to binary:
00000010 10011100. 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+029C represents the Latin letter small capital H (ầ). In digital text, this character is often used in typography for stylistic purposes, as it differs from both the standard uppercase H (H) and the small h (h) in appearance. The Latin script, from which this character derives, is one of the most widely used writing systems globally. While U+029C may not have a specific cultural or linguistic context, it contributes to the rich variety of letterforms available for creative expression and design. Its use can be seen in typographic projects, historical texts, or any context where an alternative representation of the standard uppercase H is desired.
