Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ᒃ has the Unicode code point U+1483. 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+1483 to binary:
00010100 10000011. 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 10010010 10000011

Description
The Unicode character U+1483 represents "CANADIAN SYLLABICS K" (ᖳ) in the Canadian Aboriginal Syllabics block. This character is commonly used in digital texts to transcribe the Canadian Inuit, Cree, and Ojibwe languages, which are part of the Algonquian family of indigenous North American languages. The Canadian Aboriginal Syllabics block comprises 310 characters, including uppercase and lowercase letters as well as punctuation marks, aiming to accommodate the various phonological nuances and dialectal variations across these linguistic groups. As part of the Unicode Standard, U+1483 enables digital communication, data exchange, and text processing in Canadian Aboriginal languages while preserving their unique typographic features and cultural significance.
