Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ᢃ has the Unicode code point U+1883. 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+1883 to binary:
00011000 10000011
. 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 10100010 10000011

Description
The Unicode character U+1883, Mongolian Letter Ali Galii Ubadama, is a part of the Mongolian script. In its typical usage within digital text, it represents the consonant "А" or "A" in the Mongolian alphabet. It's worth noting that the Mongolian script is unique as it was derived from the Tibetan and Uighur scripts. This particular character plays a significant role in the linguistic context of the Mongolian language, which belongs to the Mongolic branch of the Altaic languages within the larger family of Altaic languages. While not widely used globally due to its specific cultural and regional significance, it is essential in local contexts where the Mongolian language is spoken or studied. In terms of technical aspects, the Unicode character U+1883 follows the standardized encoding system that facilitates accurate digital representation and communication across diverse languages and scripts.
