Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ᐥ has the Unicode code point U+1425. 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+1425 to binary:
00010100 00100101. 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 10010000 10100101

Description
U+1425 is the Unicode code point for "CANADIAN SYLLABICS FINAL DOUBLE ACUTE". This character serves as a diacritical mark in the Canadian Aboriginal Syllabics writing system, specifically in the Michif language. It functions by modifying the sound value of the preceding syllabic glyph in the text. In the context of typography and digital text, it is often used to accurately represent the nuances of phonological features that are unique to these languages. The Canadian Aboriginal Syllabics writing system has been in use for over a century among Indigenous communities across Canada, particularly in education and literature. It's an important part of preserving and promoting indigenous culture and language, making it crucial in the field of linguistics. The U+1425 character is essential in accurately representing these languages digitally, ensuring their authenticity and understanding for future generations.
