Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ᥣ has the Unicode code point U+1963. 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+1963 to binary:
00011001 01100011
. 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 10100101 10100011

Description
U+1963 is the Unicode code point for TAI LE LETTER A, a character from the Tai Le script used primarily in the Chamic languages such as Vietnamese and the Cham language of Vietnam. In digital text, it serves as an essential component in representing and encoding these linguistic systems accurately. The TAI LE LETTER A holds significance in both cultural and linguistic contexts, as it contributes to the preservation and promotion of the unique heritage of the Chamic languages. Its precise representation through Unicode also supports technical applications such as text processing, translation, and localization efforts for software and digital platforms. By ensuring accurate depiction of this character and others in its script, Unicode fosters a more inclusive and diverse global communication landscape.
