Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ᑪ has the Unicode code point U+146A. 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+146A to binary:
00010100 01101010. 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 10010001 10101010

Description
The Unicode character U+146A represents the "CANADIAN SYLLABICS TTA" glyph, a letter used in the Canadian Aboriginal Syllabics script. This script is primarily utilized for writing languages spoken by Indigenous peoples across Canada, including Cree, Ojibwe, Inuktitut, and other First Nations and Inuit languages. As part of the Canadian Aboriginal Syllabics block (U+1460-U+14FF), this character contributes to the preservation and promotion of Indigenous cultures by enabling digital representation and communication of these linguistic systems. U+146A specifically represents a syllable "TTA," composed of an initial consonant "T" followed by a vowel sequence "A" and another consonant "T." It is essential to note that the usage of this character in digital text should be carefully applied, taking into consideration the phonetic and syntactic rules of the respective language to avoid miscommunication or misinterpretation.
