Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character has the Unicode code point U+0E66. 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+0E66 to binary:
00001110 01100110
. 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:
11100000 10111001 10100110

Description
The Unicode character U+0E66 (CHARACTER 0E66) plays a significant role in digital text as it represents the lowercase Latin letter 'x' with a line above in the Georgian script, known as "gxebeli" (გჰ). This script is primarily used for writing the Georgian language, which is spoken predominantly in Georgia and by Georgian diaspora communities worldwide. In the digital realm, U+0E66 enables accurate representation of written text in the Georgian language, supporting communication, literature, and cultural preservation among its speakers. The character holds a vital position in maintaining linguistic accuracy and facilitating efficient exchange of information within the Georgian-speaking community.
