Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ᐓ has the Unicode code point U+1413. 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+1413 to binary:
00010100 00010011
. 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 10010000 10010011

Description
The Unicode character U+1413, also known as CANADIAN SYLLABICS WEST-CREE WO, plays a significant role in digital text by representing the phonetic values of West Cree language, one of the five distinct dialects of the Plains Cree language. This specific symbol is part of the Unicode block for Canadian Aboriginal Syllabics, which encompasses 84 characters essential to communicate in Indigenous languages across Canada. As a crucial element of digital text, U+1413 enables writers and speakers of the West Cree dialect to preserve and share their linguistic heritage in an accessible and standardized format.
