Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character Ŏ has the Unicode code point U+014E. 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+014E to binary:
00000001 01001110. 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:
11000101 10001110

Description
U+014E, the Latin Capital Letter O with Breve, is a unique character in the Unicode system used to represent certain accented letters in digital text. This letter is characterized by a breve, which is a diacritical mark typically represented as a small horizontal line below the letter. In linguistic terms, this character finds its primary application within the context of several minority languages such as Old Church Slavic, Old Irish, and Middle English. Although less common in modern digital texts, it still holds significance for historical and linguistic studies. The Latin Capital Letter O with Breve serves a crucial role in maintaining the accuracy of transcriptions, ensuring that the subtleties of phonetic pronunciation and word distinction are maintained. Despite its limited use today, this character is essential for preserving the richness and complexity of languages that once relied heavily on it.
