Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ူ has the Unicode code point U+1030. 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+1030 to binary:
00010000 00110000
. 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 10000000 10110000

Description
The Unicode character U+1030, known as MYANMAR VOWEL SIGN UU, plays a significant role in the Myanmar language (Burmese), which is primarily spoken in Myanmar (formerly Burma) and by Myanmar expatriates worldwide. This Unicode character forms part of the Myanmar script, which consists of 33 consonants, 14 vowel signs, and four primary tones, thereby contributing to the rich linguistic heritage of Myanmar. Its typical usage in digital text is to denote the long /uː/ sound when combined with certain consonants, allowing for a more accurate representation of the phonetic structure of words. It's essential to understand that the MYANMAR VOWEL SIGN UU holds cultural and linguistic significance, as it contributes to the correct representation and interpretation of Myanmar texts in digital platforms. The use of Unicode characters like U+1030 ensures accurate encoding, storage, and transmission of text data across different systems and devices, thereby preserving the integrity of Myanmar language for future generations.
