Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ᩑ has the Unicode code point U+1A51. 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+1A51 to binary:
00011010 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 10101001 10010001

Description
The Unicode character U+1A51 represents the TAI THAM LETTER EE (𑂞), a script used in the Tai Tham writing system. This script is primarily employed for writing several Hmong languages, including the Hmong Daw and Hmong Njom dialects, which are spoken by various ethnic groups in Southeast Asia. The TAI THAM LETTER EE has a significant role in digital text, as it facilitates the accurate representation of these languages on electronic devices, promoting literacy and communication among Hmong speakers worldwide. U+1A51 is part of the Tai Tham script block within Unicode, which comprises characters ranging from U+1900 to U+197F, encompassing 285 characters in total. The TAI THAM LETTER EE and other characters in this script are essential for preserving cultural identity and fostering linguistic diversity in the digital era.
