Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ᥰ has the Unicode code point U+1970. 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+1970 to binary:
00011001 01110000
. 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 10110000

Description
U+1970 is the Unicode code point for TAI LE LETTER TONE-2, a character primarily used in digital text for representing tone markers in the Vietnamese language. Specifically, it serves as a diacritic to indicate the second of six different tones in the Vietnamese tonal system. The TAI LE script is utilized in several other languages, including Tay and Thai Le, which also employ tone marks. Unicode's adoption of these characters has greatly facilitated digital communication and text processing for speakers of these languages.
