Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ᴥ has the Unicode code point U+1D25. 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+1D25 to binary:
00011101 00100101
. 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 10110100 10100101

Description
The Unicode character U+1D25, known as the Latin Letter Ain, is a letter used in the Nüshu script, which was historically employed by women in China's Hunan province for written communication. Nüshu, a logosyllabic writing system, allows its users to express both phonetic and semantic elements of language. The Latin Letter Ain is one of 26 basic Nüshu characters, each representing either an initial or a final consonant, with tones indicated by diacritics or vowel marks placed above or below the base character. Although Nüshu is not widely used today, efforts are being made to preserve and promote this unique script as part of China's cultural heritage.
