Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ᔜ has the Unicode code point U+151C. 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+151C to binary:
00010101 00011100. 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 10010100 10011100

Description
The Unicode character U+151C, also known as CANADIAN SYLLABICS WEST-CREE SHWII, plays a significant role in digital text representation, particularly within the realm of linguistics and cultural contexts. This character is part of the Canadian Aboriginal Syllabics block, which consists of 72 characters used to represent the 24 phonemes of various Cree languages and other Canadian Indigenous languages. The West-Cree Shwii (U+151C) specifically represents a syllable in these languages and is used to facilitate communication and maintain linguistic heritage among speakers of these dialects. In digital text, the U+151C character allows for accurate representation and preservation of these unique languages, contributing to the cultural richness of Indigenous communities across Canada. Its use in digital platforms and applications demonstrates a commitment to inclusivity, diversity, and linguistic equity.
