Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ᒐ has the Unicode code point U+1490. 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+1490 to binary:
00010100 10010000. 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 10010010 10010000

Description
The Unicode character U+1490 represents the Canadian Syllabics CA (CANADIAN SYLLABICS CA). This character is part of a set of symbols used in the Canadian Aboriginal syllabic writing system, which was developed by missionaries to transcribe Cree and other Algonquian languages. U+1490 is primarily utilized in digital text for representing phonetic values, particularly in the context of Indigenous languages of North America, such as Cree, Ojibwe, Inuktitut, and others. It holds significant cultural importance, as it facilitates communication within these communities by enabling written expression that closely reflects their oral language structure. Additionally, U+1490 contributes to linguistic preservation efforts and the promotion of Indigenous languages.
