Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ᰐ has the Unicode code point U+1C10. 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+1C10 to binary:
00011100 00010000. 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 10010000

Description
The Unicode character U+1C10, known as Lepcha Letter PHA, holds a significant position in the realm of digital typography. It is primarily used in the Lepcha script, which is employed for the Lepcha language predominantly spoken by the Lepcha people in the Indian state of Sikkim and parts of Nepal. The Lepcha language, part of the Darmanian family of languages, demonstrates a unique cultural and linguistic context that distinguishes it from other scripts. U+1C10, or Lepcha Letter PHA, plays an integral role in this script by representing a consonant sound specific to the Lepcha phonology. As a typographer, ensuring accurate representation of such characters is crucial for preserving linguistic integrity and facilitating communication within the Lepcha community. In digital text, U+1C10 ensures the faithful reproduction of traditional Lepcha texts in various applications, contributing to the continued use and evolution of this ancient writing system.
