Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character Ƅ has the Unicode code point U+0184. In UTF-8, it is encoded using 2 bytes because its codepoint is in the range of
0x0080
to0x07ff
.
Therefore we know that the UTF-8 encoding will be done over 11 bits within the final 16 bits and that it will have the format:110xxxxx 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+0184 to binary:
00000001 10000100
. 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
U+0184, the Latin Capital Letter Tone Six, is a unique character in the Unicode Standard that holds significant importance within the realm of digital text. This letter primarily serves as a part of the Estonian alphabet, specifically representing the sixth tone mark in the language. In Estonian, tones play a crucial role in differentiating word meanings and maintaining linguistic accuracy, making U+0184 an essential component for accurate representation of Estonian text. The character is not widely used in other languages or contexts due to its specialized function within the Estonian language system. Despite its limited scope, U+0184 serves as a vital tool in preserving the linguistic heritage and integrity of Estonian communication in digital formats.
