Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ᔟ has the Unicode code point U+151F. 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+151F to binary:
00010101 00011111. 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 10011111

Description
U+151F, the Canadian Syllabics Shwoo character, is a symbol in the Unicode standard, which plays a significant role in digital text as part of the Canadian Aboriginal syllabics set. This character represents a phonetic value and is used predominantly to transcribe the Cree language, an Algonquian language native to Canada. The Cree language has 25 to 30 dialects spoken by over 160,000 people, mainly in the Canadian provinces of Manitoba, Saskatchewan, Quebec, Labrador, Ontario and the Northwest Territories. Although not widely used outside of these regions, the character remains important for maintaining cultural identity and preserving linguistic diversity. The usage of this character in digital text is vital for accurate representation of oral traditions, literature, religious texts, and other written forms in Cree.
