Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ᑝ has the Unicode code point U+145D. 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+145D to binary:
00010100 01011101. 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 10011101

Description
The character U+145D, also known as "CANADIAN SYLLABICS TWO," is a significant symbol within the realm of digital text, specifically in the context of the Canadian Aboriginal Syllabics script. This script, which primarily comprises 21 characters, was developed by missionaries and educators to represent the various indigenous languages across Canada in written form. U+145D, as a part of this unique script, plays a crucial role in preserving and promoting these diverse linguistic expressions. The character represents the syllable "wa," which is frequently utilized in Cree, Ojibwe, Inuktitut, and other indigenous languages spoken across Canada. Its primary usage lies within digital text platforms, such as websites and applications designed to support multilingual content, allowing for inclusive communication among speakers of these languages. By incorporating U+145D and the Canadian Aboriginal Syllabics script into their platforms, companies and organizations can respect and celebrate the rich cultural heritage and linguistic diversity within Canada's indigenous communities.
