Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ᙠ has the Unicode code point U+1660. 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+1660 to binary:
00010110 01100000. 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 10011001 10100000

Description
The Unicode character U+1660 represents the "CANADIAN SYLLABICS CARRIER TSA" in the digital text. Its primary role is to serve as a carrier in the Canadian Aboriginal Syllabics script, which is used for writing various Algonquian and Iroquoian languages spoken by Indigenous peoples of Canada. The "TSA" in its name stands for "Trailing Syllable Apostrophe," denoting that it comes at the end of a syllable when combined with other Canadian Aboriginal Syllabics characters. This character helps to ensure correct pronunciation and accurate representation of words in these languages, maintaining their cultural integrity in digital text. U+1660 plays an important role in preserving Indigenous linguistic heritage and fostering communication among the communities that speak these languages.
