Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ᰻ has the Unicode code point U+1C3B. 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+1C3B to binary:
00011100 00111011. 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 10111011

Description
The character U+1C3B, known as Lepcha Punctuation Ta-rol, holds a significant position in the digital realm of typography and Unicode. This particular character is widely utilized in the Lepcha language, which is spoken predominantly by the Lepcha people of Sikkim, India, and eastern Nepal. The Lepcha script, of which this character is an integral part, is a syllabic writing system with its origins dating back to the 13th century. In terms of its role in digital text, U+1C3B serves as a punctuation mark that plays a crucial role in conveying meaning and syntactical structure within the Lepcha language. It assists readers in understanding sentence boundaries, pauses, and other linguistic nuances, thus facilitating comprehension. This character contributes to the preservation of linguistic heritage and cultural identity for the Lepcha-speaking communities. It is important to note that the Unicode standard, which includes U+1C3B, aims to encompass a vast array of characters from different scripts and languages, promoting global information interchange and ensuring the representation of diverse cultures and perspectives in digital communication. This underscores the importance of accurate typographical representation for maintaining linguistic integrity and fostering cross-cultural understanding.
