Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ᠠ has the Unicode code point U+1820. 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+1820 to binary:
00011000 00100000
. 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 10100000 10100000
MONGOLIAN LETTER A·U+1820

Description
U+1820 Mongolian Letter A is a crucial character in the Mongolian script, also known as the Khalkha script. This alphabet system, which consists of 30 characters, is primarily used for writing the Mongolian language. In digital text, Mongolian Letter A serves as an essential building block for crafting words and phrases in Mongolian, thus playing a significant role in written communication within this linguistic context. The script has its roots in the Tibetan and Uighur scripts, reflecting the rich cultural history of Mongolia. Despite the growing prevalence of Cyrillic script in modern Mongolia due to historical and political influences, the Khalkha script remains an important aspect of Mongolian heritage and culture, demonstrating the resilience and adaptability of traditional writing systems in a rapidly changing world.
