Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ဩ has the Unicode code point U+1029. 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+1029 to binary:
00010000 00101001
. 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 10000000 10101001
MYANMAR LETTER O·U+1029

Description
The Unicode character U+1029, MYANMAR LETTER O, is a crucial component of the Myanmar script, which belongs to the Brahmic family of writing systems. In digital text, this character typically represents the consonant-vowel combination "O" in Myanmar language. This script is predominantly used for written communication in Myanmar, formerly known as Burma, a Southeast Asian country with a rich cultural and linguistic heritage. The MYANMAR LETTER O plays a significant role in rendering the pronunciation and meaning of words accurately in the Myanmar language, which has a syllabic structure similar to other Brahmic scripts. The Unicode standard ensures that digital text encoded with U+1029 maintains its correct form across various platforms and applications, thereby facilitating seamless communication and information exchange for the Myanmar-speaking community. As part of the comprehensive effort towards digitalization and global connectivity, the inclusion of characters like MYANMAR LETTER O in Unicode helps preserve and promote linguistic diversity, cultural identity, and intellectual property rights.
