Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ႝ has the Unicode code point U+109D. 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+109D to binary:
00010000 10011101
. 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 10011101

Description
The Unicode character U+109D, known as MYANMAR VOWEL SIGN AITON AI, plays a crucial role in the Myanmar language, which is predominantly spoken in Myanmar (Burma), formerly known as Burmese. This character is part of the Myanmar script and represents the vowel sound 'ai'. In digital text, U+109D enables accurate representation of the Myanmar language, aiding in its readability and comprehension by both native speakers and non-native readers with knowledge of this script. The Myanmar script is derived from the Monastic Pāli script used in Buddhist Pali literature and evolved over time to form the distinct Myanmar script. U+109D, as a part of this script, carries significant cultural, linguistic, and technical importance, facilitating communication and preserving the rich heritage of the Myanmar language.
