Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character Ĕ has the Unicode code point U+0114. In UTF-8, it is encoded using 2 bytes because its codepoint is in the range of
0x0080
to0x07ff
.
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 thex
are 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+0114 to binary:
00000001 00010100
. 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
U+0114, the Latin Capital Letter E with Breve, is a Unicode character that plays a crucial role in digital text representation. Typically used in various languages, this character features a distinctive diacritical mark called "breve" that distinguishes it from other characters in the same family. In some cultures and linguistic contexts, such as in the Czech or Hungarian alphabets, the presence of the breve on the letter 'E' indicates a specific phonetic pronunciation or morphological change. For instance, in Hungarian, the character represents the sound "e" with an extended vowel quality. The Latin Capital Letter E with Breve is essential for accurate digital text encoding and decoding, ensuring that information is presented and interpreted correctly across diverse languages and platforms.
