Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character has the Unicode code point U+086D. 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+086D to binary:
00001000 01101101
. 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:
11100000 10100001 10101101

Description
U+086D is a unique character in the Unicode standard, representing the "Mongolian Vowel Sign Front Unrounded (U+086D)". This character holds a significant role within digital text, particularly in Mongolian and related languages. Its primary usage lies within its role as a vowel sign in the Mongolian script, which is the official writing system of Mongolia. The Mongolian script, also known as the Uls script, was developed during the 13th century and has evolved since then, with Unicode helping to standardize its representation in digital texts. U+086D, or "Mongolian Vowel Sign Front Unrounded", plays a crucial part in accurately representing Mongolian language pronunciation and phonetics, enabling a precise translation of the spoken language into written text. The character's technical context is within the Mongolian Extended script block, which encompasses characters from various scripts used by Mongolic languages. In summary, U+086D (Mongolian Vowel Sign Front Unrounded) serves as a critical component in digital texts of Mongolian and related languages, ensuring accurate representation of pronunciation and phonetics for precise language communication.
