Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ᶃ has the Unicode code point U+1D83. 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+1D83 to binary:
00011101 10000011
. 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 10000011

Description
U+1D83, the Latin Small Letter G with Palatal Hook, is a unique Unicode character that plays a crucial role in typography and digital text representation. This particular glyph is derived from the Spanish alphabet and is used to represent the palatal "g" sound in certain dialects of Spanish, specifically those spoken in Central America and parts of South America. It is a vital component for accurate transcription and translation of these regional dialects in digital communication, literature, and educational materials. The character is not commonly used outside its specific linguistic context, but its inclusion in Unicode (as part of the Latin Extended-C set) ensures that it remains accessible to typographers and digital content creators who need to represent this distinct sound accurately.
