Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ၵ has the Unicode code point U+1075. 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+1075 to binary:
00010000 01110101
. 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 10000001 10110101

Description
U+1075 is the Unicode code point for MYANMAR LETTER SHAN KA, a character used in the Shan language, which is spoken predominantly in Myanmar. The Shan script is one of the 11 official scripts used in Myanmar and has its own unique set of characters. In digital text, U+1075 is used to represent the sound 'k' when transcribing words from the Shan language into English or other languages that use the Latin alphabet. The character plays a crucial role in preserving the linguistic diversity of Myanmar and ensuring accurate transcription of spoken Shan language in written form. As a result, U+1075 is essential for academic research, translation services, and cultural exchange related to the Shan-speaking communities.
