Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ᶐ has the Unicode code point U+1D90. 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+1D90 to binary:
00011101 10010000. 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 10110110 10010000

Description
U+1D90, also known as the Latin Small Letter Alpha with Retroflex Hook, is a specialized character within the Unicode Standard. In digital text, this glyph typically serves to represent an alphabetic symbol, derived from the Latin script. The Retroflex Hook is a diacritical mark that indicates a retroflex pronunciation for the preceding consonant, which involves the tip of the tongue curling upward and backward against the palate or upper gum ridge. Although not widely used in standard written languages, U+1D90 may be employed to represent specific phonetic characteristics in linguistic research, transcription systems, or specialized typography for certain regional languages or dialects. Its primary role is to denote a particular pronunciation or articulation feature that could be essential for accurate communication and understanding within these contexts.
