Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ᩵ has the Unicode code point U+1A75. 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+1A75 to binary:
00011010 01110101. 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 10110101

Description
The character U+1A75, known as the "TAI THAM SIGN TONE-1," holds a significant role in digital text communication, specifically within the Thai language. It is employed to denote tone variations in the Thai script. Thai, an Austroasiatic language spoken predominantly in Thailand and Cambodia, is known for its tonal qualities, with five distinct tones influencing word meaning. The TAI THAM SIGN TONE-1 character serves as a critical component of this tonal system by distinguishing the first tone in Thai text. This enables accurate communication and comprehension of the written language, which relies on these tone markers to convey subtleties in meaning. In digital text, U+1A75 is crucial for maintaining the integrity of the Thai language's tonal nuances and preserving its cultural identity.
