Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character Ừ has the Unicode code point U+1EEA. In UTF-8, it is encoded using 3 bytes because its codepoint is in the range of
0x0800
to0xffff
.
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 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+1EEA to binary:
00011110 11101010
. 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 10111011 10101010

Description
The Unicode character U+1EEA, known as LATIN CAPITAL LETTER U WITH HORN AND GRAVE, is a typographical symbol used in digital text to represent a specific letter variant in certain linguistic contexts. In the Latin script, this character is employed to denote a capital letter 'U' with a unique combination of diacritical marks - a horn and a grave accent. This particular combination is typically associated with the Occitan language, which is spoken in regions across southern France. The horn is used to indicate a phonetic change in some dialects, while the grave accent indicates a lengthening or nasalization of the sound. While U+1EEA may not be frequently used due to its association with a relatively lesser-known language, it plays an essential role in preserving and promoting the linguistic and cultural identity of the Occitan people. As with other Unicode characters, U+1EEA helps maintain typographical accuracy and consistency across digital platforms, enabling users to create content that accurately reflects the intended language and style.
