Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ᥌ has the Unicode code point U+194C. 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+194C to binary:
00011001 01001100. 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 10001100

Description
The Unicode character U+194C, known as LIMBU DIGIT SIX, is a crucial component of the Limbu script. This script is predominantly used to represent the Limbu language, which is primarily spoken in Nepal and parts of Eastern India. The Limbu script was developed in the 19th century by Bhakta Bajracharya, based on the traditional Nepali script. As a digit, U+194C serves as one of the ten decimal digits (0-9) in the Limbu script, representing the numeral value "six." In digital text, it's used to transcribe and encode Limbu language texts that require numerical representation, thus playing a significant role in preserving and promoting this unique linguistic and cultural heritage.
