Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ấ has the Unicode code point U+1EA5. 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+1EA5 to binary:
00011110 10100101. 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
The Unicode character U+1EA5, known as "LATIN SMALL LETTER A WITH CIRCUMFLEX AND ACUTE," is a unique typographical symbol that plays an important role in digital text. It combines two diacritical marks, the circumflex (^) and the acute accent (´), with the Latin letter 'a'. This character is predominantly used in the Azerbaijani language, where it represents a distinct phoneme. In Azerbaijani, the U+1EA5 character helps differentiate words that would otherwise be homophones if only the base letter 'a' was used. This is especially important for accurate text processing and machine translation applications. While less commonly used in other languages, the U+1EA5 symbol showcases the richness of linguistic diversity and the importance of precise typography in digital communication.
