Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ᶾ has the Unicode code point U+1DBE. 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+1DBE to binary:
00011101 10111110
. 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 10111110

Description
The Unicode character U+1DBE, known as the Modifier Letter Small Ezh (Ḟ), is a typographical element with specific roles in digital text. It is part of a larger group of modifier letters designed to be used in conjunction with Latin script characters to create additional diacritical marks. These include accents and other symbols that modify the base character's pronunciation or meaning, allowing for greater linguistic diversity and accuracy. The Modifier Letter Small Ezh is primarily used in the Azerbaijani language, where it appears as a lowercase modification of the Latin letter E (E). It does not hold any cultural or historical significance outside of its specific usage, but its inclusion in the Unicode character set allows for more accurate and diverse representation of languages that utilize this diacritical mark. In digital text, the Modifier Letter Small Ezh contributes to the precise rendering of these linguistic nuances, enhancing readability and comprehension for users familiar with Azerbaijani or other languages that employ similar modifiers.
