Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ᥑ has the Unicode code point U+1951. 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+1951 to binary:
00011001 01010001
. 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 10010001

Description
The Unicode character U+1951 represents the Tai Le Letter XA. This letter is part of the Tai Le script, which is primarily used to write the Tai Le language, also known as Tham or White Tai, spoken predominantly in northern Vietnam and southern China's Yunnan province. The TAI LE LETTER XA character serves a crucial role in digital text by enabling the accurate representation and communication of the Tai Le language online and in software applications. The Tai Le script is a syllabic writing system, and each letter represents either a consonant or a combination of a consonant and an inherent vowel. U+1951, TAI LE LETTER XA, specifically denotes the consonant-vowel sequence "xa" when used in the script. The character plays a vital role in preserving cultural heritage and promoting linguistic diversity on the global stage, as it ensures accurate digital representation of the Tai Le language and its rich literary traditions.
