Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ⸴ has the Unicode code point U+2E34. 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+2E34 to binary:
00101110 00110100. 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:
11100010 10111000 10110100

Description
The Unicode character U+2E34 is known as the RAISED COMMA, a typographical symbol with a distinct elevation compared to a standard comma (U+002C). It is not widely used in everyday digital text due to its limited functionality and unconventional appearance. However, it serves a specific role within the world of Unicode and typography by providing an alternative representation for commas that can be employed to create visual variety or to convey emphasis in certain contexts. The RAISED COMMA may find utility in specific design applications or specialized text formats where unique or elevated symbols are desired, although its usage is not common and does not carry any inherent linguistic, cultural, or technical significance beyond its distinct form.
