Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ၥ has the Unicode code point U+1065. 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+1065 to binary:
00010000 01100101
. 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 10100101

Description
U+1065 is the Unicode character code for the Myanmar Letter Western Pwo Karen Tha (ဗ). This character plays a significant role in digital text, particularly within the Myanmar language. As part of the Myanmar script, it contributes to the accurate representation and encoding of traditional Myanmar literature, documents, and digital communications. The Myanmar script is unique and distinct from other Southeast Asian scripts due to its historical and linguistic development. In the context of the Karen language, specifically the Pwo dialect, the character ဗ is used as a phonetic representation for the sound /w/, which is a voiced labial-velar approximant in the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA). The use of this character helps preserve and promote the rich cultural heritage of the Karen people, who are among the largest ethnic groups in Myanmar. In conclusion, U+1065 (ဗ) is a crucial component for digital text encoding and display, allowing users to accurately represent and communicate traditional Myanmar literature, including the Pwo dialect of the Karen language.
