Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ᘐ has the Unicode code point U+1610. 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+1610 to binary:
00010110 00010000
. 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 10010000

Description
The Unicode character U+1610 represents the "CANADIAN SYLLABICS CARRIER YE". In digital text, this character serves as a carrier unit in the Canadian Aboriginal Syllabics script. It is used to divide complex syllables into simpler components, facilitating the representation of indigenous languages across various First Nations communities in Canada. The character's role is essential for maintaining linguistic integrity and enabling accurate transcription in these native North American languages.
