Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ᥍ has the Unicode code point U+194D. In UTF-8, it is encoded using 3 bytes because its codepoint is in the range of
0x0800
to0xffff
.
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 thex
are 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+194D to binary:
00011001 01001101
. 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 10100101 10001101

Description
The character U+194D, also known as LIMBU DIGIT SEVEN, is an integral part of the Limbu script. This unique digit is used to represent the numerical value seven in written texts that employ the Limbu script, primarily in the Limbu language spoken by ethnic Limbus who mainly reside in Eastern Nepal. In digital text, U+194D serves as a glyph to accurately depict this particular numeric value within the context of Limbu numeracy. Its usage is essential for the preservation and propagation of Limbu culture, linguistics, and tradition, allowing speakers of the language to effectively communicate numerical concepts without ambiguity or misinterpretation.
