Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ᖔ has the Unicode code point U+1594. 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+1594 to binary:
00010101 10010100. 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 10010110 10010100

Description
U+1594, also known as CANADIAN SYLLABICS NGAA, is a character in the Unicode Standard that plays a vital role in digital text representation. This character belongs to the "Canadian Aboriginal Syllabics" block, which encompasses 21 characters used in various Indigenous languages of Canada. The Canadian syllabics are a set of 24 symbols, inspired by the Latin script and developed in the late 19th century by Rev. James Evans, a Methodist missionary. These characters serve as a written representation for phonemes or speech sounds specific to these languages. The NGAA character is used to represent a syllable consisting of an 'n' followed by a 'g', and then a final 'a'. It has cultural significance, as it helps maintain the linguistic identity of Indigenous peoples in Canada, promoting the preservation and revitalization of their languages. In terms of technical context, CANADIAN SYLLABICS NGAA is encoded using UTF-8 and UTF-16, which are two widely used character encodings for digital text representation. In conclusion, U+1594 (CANADIAN SYLLABICS NGAA) is a crucial component of the Canadian Aboriginal Syllabics block in the Unicode Standard. It plays a significant role in the representation of Indigenous languages of Canada and helps preserve linguistic identity while promoting cultural understanding and respect for diversity in digital text communication.
