Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ᑧ has the Unicode code point U+1467. In UTF-8, it is encoded using 3 bytes because its codepoint is in the range of
0x0800
to0xffff
.
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 thex
are 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+1467 to binary:
00010100 01100111
. 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 10100111

Description
The Unicode character U+1467, known as CANADIAN SYLLABICS TTE, plays a significant role in the representation of the Canadian Aboriginal syllabic script. This script is a writing system used predominantly by Indigenous peoples of Canada, including the Cree, Ojibwe, Inuit, and other First Nations communities. Each symbol in this script represents a consonant-vowel pair or a standalone vowel. The CANADIAN SYLLABICS TTE character is used specifically to represent a combination of the consonant "t" and the syllabic element "te," which can appear at the end of a word in various dialects. This script has been in use since the 19th century, with missionaries adapting it from the older Cree syllabics to create a more standardized form. Today, the Canadian Aboriginal syllabics are used for literacy, education, and cultural preservation purposes within Indigenous communities across Canada.
