Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ę has the Unicode code point U+0119. 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+0119 to binary:
00000001 00011001. 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+0119, known as the Latin Small Letter E with Ogonek, is a typographical character used primarily within digital text for its distinctive appearance. It serves an important role in various languages, particularly those belonging to the Slavic linguistic family. The Ogonek is a diacritical mark placed on the lower-case letter 'e' and is used to represent a distinct phoneme or sound that is not present in other alphabets. This character's cultural significance stems from its usage in languages such as Polish, where it distinguishes between two different vowel sounds. The accurate representation of this character in digital text contributes to the preservation and understanding of these linguistic nuances. In terms of technical context, U+0119 is an Unicode code point that allows for precise encoding and rendering of this unique letter form across various devices and platforms.
