Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ᔙ has the Unicode code point U+1519. 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+1519 to binary:
00010101 00011001. 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 10010100 10011001

Description
U+1519, also known as CANADIAN SYLLABICS SHWI, is a character from the Unicode standard that holds significant importance in the Canadian Aboriginal syllabics writing system. This unique character represents the sound 'sh' when used in word formation. The Canadian Aboriginal syllabics are a set of 58 characters used in the orthography of several First Nations languages, primarily Cree and Ojibwe. U+1519 plays an essential role in digital text by enabling accurate representation and communication of these indigenous languages on modern electronic devices. The use of this character is part of ongoing efforts to preserve, revitalize, and promote the rich linguistic heritage of Canadian Aboriginal communities. By accurately representing their unique sounds and phonetic structures, U+1519 contributes to the cultural and linguistic preservation of these important languages.
