Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ᖧ has the Unicode code point U+15A7. 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+15A7 to binary:
00010101 10100111. 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 10100111

Description
The character U+15A7, known as CANADIAN SYLLABICS TH-CREE THE, plays a significant role in the digital representation of text within the Canadian Syllabics script. This Unicode character is part of a set of characters designed to represent the phonetic structure of the Cree language and other Canadian Indigenous languages. It specifically denotes a syllable 'th' in the Cree dialect, aiding in accurate digital transcription of these languages. U+15A7, like other characters within the Canadian Syllabics script, helps maintain the linguistic integrity of these indigenous languages that primarily rely on oral traditions. Its usage is crucial for transcribing and translating written material, including educational resources, literature, and digital communication in the Cree language and other Canadian Indigenous languages that use the syllabic script system.
