Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ᜁ has the Unicode code point U+1701. 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+1701 to binary:
00010111 00000001. 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 10011100 10000001

Description
The Unicode character U+1701, TAGALOG LETTER I, is an essential component of the Tagalog language, which is primarily spoken in the Philippines. In digital text, this character serves a critical role by enabling accurate and culturally sensitive representation of the language. Tagalog, part of the larger Austronesian language family, is not only the national language of the Philippines but also an official language for the Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao (ARMM) alongside other languages. U+1701's inclusion in Unicode ensures proper encoding and display of Tagalog text on digital platforms, thereby facilitating communication and preserving linguistic heritage.
