Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ʄ has the Unicode code point U+0284. 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+0284 to binary:
00000010 10000100. 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+0284, known as LATIN SMALL LETTER DOTLESS J WITH STROKE AND HOOK, is a unique letter in the Latin alphabet. This character is not commonly used in everyday text but serves an essential purpose when needed. It primarily finds usage in digital text to represent a specific letter in certain languages or scripts, where it may help convey a particular nuance or characteristic of the language. The dotless J with stroke and hook is distinct due to its visual characteristics: the absence of a dot over the crossbar and the presence of an extended stroke and curved hook in the lowercase form. This letter might be found within linguistic contexts where it holds cultural or historical significance, or in technical applications such as cryptography or typography where specific characters are required for precise representation. Overall, U+0284 plays a niche role in digital text but contributes to the richness and diversity of global written communication.
