Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ᶪ has the Unicode code point U+1DAA. 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+1DAA to binary:
00011101 10101010. 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 10101010

Description
The Unicode character U+1DAA is known as the Modifier Letter Small L with Palatal Hook. This typographical symbol holds a unique role in digital text, serving primarily as a diacritic or modifier to change the pronunciation of the letter "L" in certain languages, such as those spoken in the Nordic regions and Icelandic. The character is part of a set of Modifier Letters, which are used to create new letters by combining them with other base characters. It achieves this by adding a palatal hook above or below the letter "L", indicating that it should be pronounced with a distinctly different sound than the standard "L" sound found in English. This character is essential for accurate transcription and communication in languages where these distinctions are crucial, highlighting its importance in linguistic and cultural contexts. In technical terms, the Modifier Letter Small L with Palatal Hook (U+1DAA) is a part of the Unicode Standard, which aims to provide a unique code point for every character, symbol, or glyph used across digital platforms worldwide.
