Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ḙ has the Unicode code point U+1E19. 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+1E19 to binary:
00011110 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:
11100001 10111000 10011001

Description
U+1E19, or LATIN SMALL LETTER E WITH CIRCUMFLEX BELOW, is a specialized character in the Unicode standard used primarily for digital text representation. This character is part of a larger family of typographic symbols known as diacritics, which are used to modify the basic letters in various writing systems. The LATIN SMALL LETTER E WITH CIRCUMFLEX BELOW specifically modifies the letter 'e' by adding a circumflex accent below it. This character is rarely used in everyday communication but can be found in technical documents, linguistic research, or specialized fields like typography and digital humanities. Its main role is to differentiate between the pronunciation of the letter 'e' and other similar characters in specific languages or dialects. The LATIN SMALL LETTER E WITH CIRCUMFLEX BELOW contributes to the richness and diversity of written expression across various cultures, languages, and contexts.
