Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ྒྷ has the Unicode code point U+0F93. 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+0F93 to binary:
00001111 10010011
. 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 10111110 10010011

Description
U+0F93 Tibetan Subjoined Letter Gha is a character from the Tibetan script used predominantly in the Tibetan language. This Unicode character plays a crucial role in digital text, as it helps represent the distinct sounds of the Tibetan language, which is rich in phonetics and tone. The Tibetan script is primarily used in written communication within the Tibet Autonomous Region of China, Bhutan, and among the Tibetan diaspora worldwide. U+0F93 is part of a complex writing system where each character has its own unique form and positioning. These characters are combined to create syllables, which then form words that convey meaning in the Tibetan language. As digital communication continues to grow, the accurate representation of such characters, like U+0F93, becomes increasingly important for maintaining linguistic integrity and preserving cultural heritage.
