Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ᕵ has the Unicode code point U+1575. 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+1575 to binary:
00010101 01110101. 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 10010101 10110101

Description
U+1575 is a character from the Unicode Standard, representing "CANADIAN SYLLABICS NUNAVIK HI". This specific character is primarily used in digital text for its role in Inuit languages, specifically the Nunavik dialect. Within this context, it contributes to the representation and preservation of linguistic and cultural heritage. The Nunavik dialect, spoken in Canada's northern region, forms part of the broader category of Canadian Aboriginal Syllabics, which are a set of 35 written languages based on the Roman alphabet. Each symbol represents a syllable rather than an individual phoneme or phoneme sequence, thereby simplifying orthography and enabling reading instruction in short periods. The character U+1575, CANADIAN SYLLABICS NUNAVIK HI, plays a significant role in the representation of these languages on digital platforms and electronic devices. Its use reflects the importance placed on preserving and promoting Inuit culture and its linguistic diversity in the face of modern technology and globalization.
