Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ᦡ has the Unicode code point U+19A1. 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+19A1 to binary:
00011001 10100001. 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 10100110 10100001

Description
U+19A1 is a character in the Unicode Standard that represents 'NEW TAI LUE LETTER HIGH DA'. This character is typically used within digital text for representing the consonant 'DA' with a high tone in the New Tai Lue script. The New Tai Lue script is an abugida, a writing system in which each character has a basic consonantal sound and carries an inherent vowel sound, specifically the 'a' sound. This character, along with other letters of the New Tai Lue alphabet, is used primarily for writing the Tai Lue language, which belongs to the Tai-Kadai language family. The New Tai Lue script is predominantly used in China by the Tai Lue people and has a long history dating back to at least the 13th century. U+19A1 serves as an essential part of this unique writing system, contributing to the preservation and continuity of the language and culture of the Tai Lue people.
