Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ᶣ has the Unicode code point U+1DA3. 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+1DA3 to binary:
00011101 10100011
. 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 10100011

Description
U+1DA3 is the Unicode character code for the "MODIFIER LETTER SMALL TURNED H" (MLSTH). It is a modifier letter used primarily in digital text to modify or alter the properties of adjacent characters, such as diacritics. In this role, MLSTH helps create and support various typographic conventions, including those found in specialized fields like linguistics, transcription, and translation. The character does not have any cultural or linguistic significance on its own but serves as a tool for typographers and developers to achieve specific textual effects.
