Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ᐤ has the Unicode code point U+1424. 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+1424 to binary:
00010100 00100100. 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 10100100

Description
The Unicode character U+1424, known as the Canadian Syllabics Final Ring, holds a significant position in digital text, particularly within the realm of the Canadian Aboriginal syllabic writing system. It is used to represent the final part of a syllable when written using the 50-character Canadian Aboriginal Syllabics alphabet. Developed by missionaries and educators in the early 20th century, this writing system facilitates communication and literacy among various Indigenous communities across Canada. U+1424 is an essential component of this script, as it accurately reflects the phonetic structure of the syllabic units specific to these languages. The Canadian Syllabics Final Ring demonstrates the rich linguistic diversity present in North America and highlights the ongoing efforts to preserve and promote Indigenous languages and cultures through typography and digital representation.
