Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ǹ has the Unicode code point U+01F9. 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+01F9 to binary:
00000001 11111001. 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+01F9, known as "LATIN SMALL LETTER N WITH GRAVE", is a typographical symbol often used in digital text. In Latin script, it represents the letter 'n' with a grave accent (̀). This accent typically modifies the pronunciation of the preceding vowel, marking it as nasalized or lengthened, depending on the language and context. While primarily associated with Romance languages like French and Italian, this character is also used in other linguistic contexts where a specific pronunciation or spelling distinction needs to be made. In typography, U+01F9 helps maintain consistency in font rendering across different platforms and applications, ensuring clarity and readability for the end-user. Overall, LATIN SMALL LETTER N WITH GRAVE is an essential character in digital text representation, allowing users to accurately convey nuances of pronunciation and language-specific spelling rules.
