Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ᧆ has the Unicode code point U+19C6. 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+19C6 to binary:
00011001 11000110
. 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 10100111 10000110

Description
U+19C6 is a typographical character known as the "NEW TAI LUE LETTER FINAL D" in Unicode standard. This character plays a significant role in digital text, specifically in languages that use the Tai Leu script, such as the Tai Leu language spoken by some ethnic groups in Vietnam and Cambodia. The New Tai Lue Letter Final D represents a consonant with an aspirated voiceless alveolar stop sound ([t]). It is a critical component of the Tai Leu writing system and is utilized to denote the final consonantal sound in syllables within words. U+19C6 is essential for accurate representation and transmission of linguistic nuances in digital communication, ensuring cultural contexts and linguistic variations are preserved. This character's inclusion in Unicode demonstrates the standard's commitment to representing a diverse range of languages, scripts, and typographical elements from around the world.
