Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ᑵ has the Unicode code point U+1475. 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+1475 to binary:
00010100 01110101. 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 10110101

Description
U+1475, also known as CANADIAN SYLLABICS WEST-CREE KWE, is a character within the Unicode Standard that holds significance in digital text representation of the West Cree dialect of the Canadian Syllabics script. The character serves as a crucial component in encoding and displaying written content in the West Cree language, which belongs to the Algonquian family of Indigenous languages spoken by the Cree people residing primarily in Canada. Its typical usage lies within digital text where it helps convey meaning and facilitate communication for speakers and learners of the West CREE dialect. In a linguistic context, U+1475 contributes to the preservation and revitalization of Indigenous languages by enabling accurate and standardized encoding of their unique written forms.
