Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ᨮ has the Unicode code point U+1A2E. 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+1A2E to binary:
00011010 00101110. 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 10101000 10101110

Description
U+1A2E is the Unicode code point for TAI THAM LETTER HIGH RATHA, a character used in digital text representation of the Thai script. This script, also known as Tham, is the writing system primarily used for the Thai language, which is spoken by millions of people in Thailand and other Southeast Asian countries. The Thai script is an abugida, meaning that it follows the principles of an alphabet but with certain consonants carrying inherent vowel sounds. TAI THAM LETTER HIGH RATHA specifically represents the consonant-vowel sequence "Ra," where "Ta" indicates the base consonant and "i" denotes the inherent vowel sound in this case. In terms of its cultural and linguistic context, the Thai script is an integral part of Thai literature, history, and culture, dating back to at least the 13th century. The use of Unicode ensures accurate digital text representation, enabling communication and preservation of these rich traditions while facilitating global understanding and appreciation of this unique writing system.
