Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ⵯ has the Unicode code point U+2D6F. 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+2D6F to binary:
00101101 01101111. 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:
11100010 10110101 10101111

Description
U+2D6F TIFINAGH MODIFIER LETTER LABIALIZATION MARK is a specialized character in the Unicode standard, specifically designed to modify the pronunciation of certain letters within the Tifinagh script. This mark is used to denote labialization, meaning it indicates that a following letter should be pronounced with rounded lips. Typical usage of this character can be found in the representation and transcription of Berber languages spoken in North Africa, such as Tuareg, Tamazight, and Kabyle, where Tifinagh script is commonly employed. This mark holds a crucial role in preserving and promoting the linguistic heritage of these regions, allowing speakers to write their native languages with accurate phonetic representations. The Tifinagh Modifier Letter Labialization Mark contributes significantly to the cultural context of these communities by supporting the documentation, transmission, and learning of their unique languages.
