Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character Ḕ has the Unicode code point U+1E14. 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+1E14 to binary:
00011110 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:
11100001 10111000 10010100

Description
The Unicode character U+1E14, known as "LATIN CAPITAL LETTER E WITH MACRON AND GRAVE", is an alphabetical symbol often employed in digital text for its unique typographical representation. In a linguistic context, this character can be used to denote phonetic differences or specific accents in certain languages, though it is not widely used in daily communication. The combination of the macron and grave accent marks indicate a long, nasalized pronunciation of the letter 'E'. In technical terms, U+1E14 is part of the Latin Extended-A Unicode block, which includes characters from various European languages that are less commonly used in digital communication. Despite its limited usage, this character serves as a crucial tool for those working with linguistic or cultural research, ensuring accurate representation and transcription of unique accents and sounds across different languages.
