Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ᥟ has the Unicode code point U+195F. 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+195F to binary:
00011001 01011111
. 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 10011111

Description
The Unicode character U+195F, TAI LE LETTER QA, is a unique letter in the Tai Le script, which was designed by Dr. Paul Tai as an alternative writing system for the Thai language. This script aims to facilitate phonetic accuracy and improve readability compared to the traditional Thai script. The TAI LE LETTER QA (Unicode U+195F) represents a specific consonant-vowel combination in the TAI Le system. In digital text, this character is used for accurate representation of Thai words that utilize the "qa" sound sequence. Although the TAI Le script has not been widely adopted, it holds potential for improving the efficiency and accessibility of written communication in Thai language.
