Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ᦏ has the Unicode code point U+198F. 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+198F to binary:
00011001 10001111. 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 10001111

Description
U+198F, also known as NEW TAI LUE LETTER HIGH THA, is a Unicode character primarily utilized in digital text for its specific role within the Tai Leue Dai (New Tai Lue High) script. This script is predominantly used to transcribe the Tai Leue dialect of the Zhuang language, which belongs to the larger group of Chinese languages. As part of the Tai Lue script, U+198F represents the sound 'h' in the Tai Leue Dai script, contributing to a rich linguistic heritage that dates back centuries. While not commonly used in everyday communication due to its specialized context, U+198F remains an important character for scholars and researchers working with the Zhuang language or studying the historical development of scripts within the Chinese language family.
