Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ᦕ has the Unicode code point U+1995. 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+1995 to binary:
00011001 10010101
. 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 10010101

Description
U+1995 is a unique Unicode character called "NEW TAI LUE LETTER HIGH PHA." It plays an essential role in digital text by representing the phoneme /pʰaː/ in the Tai Lue language, a member of the Khamti-Dangwadai language family spoken mainly in Myanmar and Thailand. The Tai Lue script, which employs this character, is an abugida system, where consonants are combined with vowel diacritics to form syllables. U+1995 contributes to the accurate representation of the High Pha sound in digital text and helps preserve the linguistic heritage and cultural identity of the Tai Lue-speaking community.
