Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ṳ has the Unicode code point U+1E73. 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+1E73 to binary:
00011110 01110011. 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 10111001 10110011

Description
The character U+1E73, known as "LATIN SMALL LETTER U WITH DIAERESIS BELOW," is a significant typographic element in digital text, primarily within the realm of linguistics and typography. This unique symbol combines two diacritical marks: the diaeresis (or umlaut) and the lower dot, rendering it distinct from other Latin letters. The diaeresis modifies the pronunciation or spelling of a letter in certain languages, while the lower dot is less commonly employed but can serve to differentiate between similar characters or indicate stress in some words. Its typical usage is found in digital texts involving alphabets that utilize these diacritical marks, such as the Dutch, Danish, Swedish, and Norwegian alphabets. Although its utilization may be less common in everyday writing systems, it remains an important element for scholars and enthusiasts of typography and linguistics.
