Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ᰤ has the Unicode code point U+1C24. 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+1C24 to binary:
00011100 00100100. 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 10100100

Description
U+1C24, known as the Lepcha Subjoined Letter Ya, is a significant character within the Unicode Standard. It holds vital importance in the digital text representation of the Lepcha language, which is primarily spoken in the Indian state of Sikkim and the adjoining regions of Nepal. This script, derived from the Tibetan script, comprises 17 consonants and 20 vowels or semivowels. The character U+1C24 represents a specific phoneme in this language, playing a crucial role in differentiating meanings within the Lepcha lexicon. While its usage is primarily within linguistic and cultural contexts, it also holds relevance for scholars and researchers studying lesser-known languages and scripts. The inclusion of U+1C24 in the Unicode Standard serves to preserve and promote these unique writing systems and their associated cultures.
