Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ᪈ has the Unicode code point U+1A88. 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+1A88 to binary:
00011010 10001000. 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 10101010 10001000

Description
U+1A88 is the Unicode character code for TAI THAM HORA DIGIT EIGHT, a numeral used in the Tham script of the Horpa language. The Horpa language belongs to the Tai-Kadai language family and is primarily spoken by the Horpa ethnic group, who reside in Southern China, particularly in Yunnan province. In digital text, TAI THAM HORA DIGIT EIGHT serves as a numeral representing the number eight within texts written in this script. The Tham script is an abugida system, where each character represents a consonant with inherent vowel sounds. The use of U+1A88 helps preserve and promote the Horpa language and culture by enabling digital communication in their native script, contributing to linguistic diversity and cultural preservation online.
