Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ƹ has the Unicode code point U+01B9. In UTF-8, it is encoded using 2 bytes because its codepoint is in the range of
0x0080to0x07ff.
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 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+01B9 to binary:
00000001 10111001. 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+01B9, or the Latin Small Letter Ezh Reversed, is a unique character in the Unicode standard used for representing various characters in different languages and scripts. In digital text, this character primarily serves to represent the Cyrillic letter "Э" in certain languages such as Ukrainian and Bulgarian. The letter is part of the Cyrillic script, which has been widely adopted by many Slavic languages, including Russian, Belarusian, Serbian, Macedonian, and others. This character plays a crucial role in maintaining the accuracy and clarity of text in these languages where it represents a specific sound or phoneme that does not exist in other alphabets. U+01B9 is important for linguistic and cultural contexts as it helps maintain authenticity and accurate representation of these languages on digital platforms, enabling effective communication among speakers and learners.
