Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ᓚ has the Unicode code point U+14DA. 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+14DA to binary:
00010100 11011010. 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 10010011 10011010

Description
The Unicode character U+14DA represents the "Canadian Syllabics LA" (Ꭿ) and is a significant glyph in digital text, particularly within the context of Cree language. As part of the Canadian Aboriginal Syllabics script, this symbol serves as a phonetic representation for specific syllables and plays a crucial role in transcribing and preserving Indigenous languages such as Cree, Ojibwe, Inuktitut, and others in Canada's North American region. The usage of U+14DA in digital text has facilitated the promotion and documentation of these linguistic traditions, fostering communication and cultural continuity among Indigenous communities. It is crucial to maintain the accuracy and integrity of these symbols within digital platforms to respect and support the diversity of linguistic heritage across various cultures and regions.
