Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ၘ has the Unicode code point U+1058. 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+1058 to binary:
00010000 01011000
. 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 10011000

Description
U+1058 is a typographical character representing the MYANMAR VOWEL SIGN VOCALIC L in Unicode. It plays an essential role in digital text by enabling accurate representation of the Myanmar language, which uses a unique script system for expressing its rich linguistic heritage. This specific vowel sign is used to denote the vocalic /ɔː/ sound and contributes to the phonetic accuracy of written texts in this Southeast Asian language. The use of U+1058 reflects the growing global emphasis on preserving cultural and linguistic diversity through standardized digital text encoding, thereby ensuring the continued viability of minority languages like Myanmar.
