Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ᶬ has the Unicode code point U+1DAC. 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+1DAC to binary:
00011101 10101100. 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 10101100

Description
The Unicode character U+1DAC is known as the "MODIFIER LETTER SMALL M WITH HOOK". It plays a significant role in digital text, particularly in linguistics and typography. This character provides an essential tool for modifying letters within certain alphabets that require the use of a small 'm' with a specific hook. The MODIFIER LETTER SMALL M WITH HOOK is most notably used in phonetic transcription systems, such as the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA) and the Americanist Phonetic Alphabet. These systems aim to represent the sounds of languages precisely, and the use of this character helps ensure accuracy in transcribing and differentiating specific speech sounds. By serving this purpose, the MODIFIER LETTER SMALL M WITH HOOK contributes significantly to linguistic research, language learning, and the study of phonetics.
