Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ᰏ has the Unicode code point U+1C0F. 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+1C0F to binary:
00011100 00001111. 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 10001111

Description
The Unicode character U+1C0F, known as "LEPCHA LETTER PLA", is a typographical element primarily used in digital text to represent the phoneme /p/ or /pl/ in the Lepcha language, which is spoken by the Lepcha people of Sikkim and West Bengal. The Lepcha script, along with its associated characters like U+1C0F, plays a vital role in preserving the linguistic heritage and cultural identity of these communities. In digital communications, this character is essential for accurate transcription and translation of texts in the Lepcha language, facilitating effective communication among native speakers and researchers studying the language. Its usage is primarily confined to the domain of linguistics, anthropology, and regional studies that involve the Lepcha people and their culture.
