Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ܐ has the Unicode code point U+0710. In UTF-8, it is encoded using 2 bytes because its codepoint is in the range of
0x0080to0x07ff.
Therefore we know that the UTF-8 encoding will be done over 11 bits within the final 16 bits and that it will have the format:110xxxxx 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+0710 to binary:
00000111 00010000. 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:

Description
The Unicode character U+0710 is known as the SYRIAC LETTER ALAPH, and it holds a significant role in digital text representing the Aramaic alphabet. This character is utilized primarily within the context of the Syriac language, which has roots dating back to the 2nd century AD. As one of the oldest Semitic scripts, Syriac played an essential part in the transmission and translation of Christian texts from Greek, Latin, and other languages into the vernacular Aramaic. In its digital form, U+0710 serves as a crucial element for accurate text representation, particularly within historical documents or religious texts, ensuring preservation of linguistic and cultural heritage.
