Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ᱣ has the Unicode code point U+1C63. 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+1C63 to binary:
00011100 01100011. 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 10110001 10100011

Description
U+1C63, also known as OL CHIKI LETTER AAW, is a unique character primarily used in the Ol Chiki script. This script was developed by Pandit Ranchhodbihari Oza for the Dogri language spoken in the regions of Himachal Pradesh and Punjab, India. The Ol Chiki script has gained popularity among the native Dogri-speaking communities due to its phonetic nature, making it easier to learn and write. In digital text, U+1C63 serves as a crucial element for accurate representation and communication of the Dogri language. Although relatively less known globally, U+1C63 holds significant cultural and linguistic importance within these communities.
