Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ᶗ has the Unicode code point U+1D97. 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+1D97 to binary:
00011101 10010111. 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 10010111

Description
The Unicode character U+1D97, known as the "Latin Small Letter Open O with Retroflex Hook," plays a significant role in digital text representation. This typographic symbol is commonly employed in linguistic contexts where it serves to represent an open-ended 'O' sound with a retroflex pronunciation. In certain languages and dialects, such as some Indian languages like Assamese or Malayalam, the character facilitates accurate transcription of phonetic nuances that may not be easily achievable using standard Latin script letters. The incorporation of U+1D97 in digital text formats contributes to enhancing the precision and cultural authenticity of written communication in these regions. Its technical context lies in its categorization under the "Latin" block within the Unicode Standard, which consists of various characters used across multiple languages. This allows for seamless interoperability and compatibility within diverse digital platforms and applications.
