Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character Ẵ has the Unicode code point U+1EB4. In UTF-8, it is encoded using 3 bytes because its codepoint is in the range of
0x0800to0xffff.
Therefore we know that the UTF-8 encoding will be done over 16 bits within the final 24 bits and that it will have the format:1110xxxx 10xxxxxx 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+1EB4 to binary:
00011110 10110100. 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:
11100001 10111010 10110100

Description
U+1EB4, also known as LATIN CAPITAL LETTER A WITH BREVE AND TILDE, is a special character in the Unicode standard used for digital text representation. In typography, this letter holds significance due to its unique combination of diacritics – the breve and tilde marks. The breve symbol (ˇ) indicates a short vowel sound, while the tilde mark (~) represents a palatalized or nasalized consonant in some languages. U+1EB4 is commonly used in various linguistic contexts to denote specific pronunciation characteristics or distinct phonetic properties of words within certain cultures and languages that utilize these unique sounds, such as Galician, Asturian, or other regional dialects of Spanish. As an expert character in Unicode typography, U+1EB4 plays a vital role in accurately representing the nuances of language and sound in digital text formats, thus preserving linguistic heritage and enhancing global communication.
