Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ႜ has the Unicode code point U+109C. In UTF-8, it is encoded using 3 bytes because its codepoint is in the range of
0x0800to0xffff.
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 thexare 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+109C to binary:
00010000 10011100. 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 10011100

Description
U+109C is the Unicode code point for the Myanmar Vowel Sign Aiton A character. This character serves a crucial role in digital text representation of the Burmese language, which is spoken by over 32 million people in Myanmar (formerly known as Burma) and other regions with significant Burmese populations. The Unicode Standard, which includes U+109C, provides a unique number for every character used in written languages, allowing for accurate representation and processing of text across different platforms and applications. The Aiton A vowel sign is part of the Myanmar script, an abugida system where each syllable is represented by a consonant followed by a vowel marker. This ensures that the pronunciation and meaning of words are accurately conveyed in digital text, preserving the rich linguistic heritage of the Burmese language for future generations.
