Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ȫ has the Unicode code point U+022B. 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+022B to binary:
00000010 00101011. 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+022B, known as the Latin Small Letter O with Diaeresis and Macron, is a Unicode character predominantly used in digital text to represent a specific modification of the letter 'O'. It combines two diacritical marks – diaeresis (umlaut) and macron – on top of the base letter. In typography and linguistics, this character can be observed in various contexts such as phonetics, orthography, and technical documentation. For instance, it is used to denote a sound or pronunciation that differs from the standard 'O' and to indicate a long vowel sound. The Latin Small Letter O with Diaeresis and Macron has cultural significance in languages like Swiss German, Danish, Norwegian, and Swedish, where it helps to distinguish specific words and sounds. In digital text, this character is commonly used to preserve the accuracy of transcriptions and phonetic representations, ensuring proper interpretation by both human readers and software applications. Overall, U+022B serves a crucial role in maintaining linguistic integrity across various languages and contexts.
