Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ႎ has the Unicode code point U+108E. 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+108E to binary:
00010000 10001110
. 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 10000010 10001110

Description
U+108E, MYANMAR LETTER RUMAI PALAUNG FA, is a character from the Myanmar Script block of the Unicode standard. It plays a vital role in digital text by representing a consonant in the Palaung language, which is spoken by the Palaung people primarily found in the northern Shan State of Myanmar and some parts of Yunnan province in China. The character is used to write words that express various aspects of Palaung culture, history, literature, and daily life. In typography, U+108E is often employed alongside other characters from the same script block to form complete syllables and words in the Palaung language. It demonstrates the rich linguistic diversity within Myanmar and showcases the technical prowess of Unicode in encoding a wide range of scripts for accurate digital representation.
