Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ᩩ has the Unicode code point U+1A69. 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+1A69 to binary:
00011010 01101001. 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 10101001

Description
The Unicode character U+1A69, known as TAI THAM VOWEL SIGN U, is a significant element in the Thai alphabet. It is a crucial component in digital text systems, especially those utilizing the Thai script. The Thai alphabet employs four vowel signs and 44 consonants which are combined in various ways to create syllables. These are then sequenced to form words. TAI THAM VOWEL SIGN U, along with the other vowel signs, is used to modify the inherent sound of the Thai consonants, creating a more comprehensive phonetic system. This character specifically denotes a high central unrounded vowel in the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA). In this way, U+1A69 aids in accurate pronunciation and understanding of Thai language content, whether it is found in digital communication or printed material.
