Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ᘴ has the Unicode code point U+1634. 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+1634 to binary:
00010110 00110100. 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 10011000 10110100

Description
U+1634, also known as CANADIAN SYLLABICS CARRIER TLHU, is a character from the Unicode standard that plays a significant role in digital text representation. This character serves as a carrier for the Canadian Aboriginal Syllabics block, which consists of 70 characters used in various Indigenous languages across Canada. The CANADIAN SYLLABICS CARRIER TLHU is essential for encoding and displaying these linguistic elements accurately in digital platforms. The Canadian Aboriginal Syllabics script was developed by missionaries to represent the phonetic structure of the Algonquian language family, which includes languages such as Ojibwe, Cree, and Inuktitut. Today, these characters continue to be vital for preserving Indigenous linguistic heritage and cultural identity in Canada.
