Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ᰍ has the Unicode code point U+1C0D. 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+1C0D to binary:
00011100 00001101. 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 10110000 10001101

Description
The Unicode character U+1C0D, known as Lepcha Letter Na, is an essential glyph within the Lepcha script, which represents one of the two primary scripts used in the Lepcha language, spoken by the Lepcha people residing in Sikkim and West Bengal in India. This character plays a crucial role in digital text representation of the Lepcha language, enabling accurate communication and preservation of this endangered linguistic heritage. The Lepcha script is an abugida system, wherein each consonant is accompanied by an inherent vowel 'a', and diacritical marks are used to modify the inherent vowel or introduce new ones. U+1C0D, in its typical usage, contributes to this distinctive phonetic and grammatical structure, reflecting the unique linguistic characteristics of the Lepcha language. In recent years, the inclusion of the Lepcha script within the Unicode Standard has facilitated greater accessibility and digital preservation of this ancient writing system, fostering cultural and linguistic revitalization efforts among the Lepcha community.
