Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ᐕ has the Unicode code point U+1415. 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+1415 to binary:
00010100 00010101. 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 10010101

Description
U+1415 is the Unicode code point for "CANADIAN SYLLABICS WEST-CREE WOO." This character is part of the Canadian Aboriginal Syllabics block, a set of characters used to represent the written languages of various Indigenous peoples in Canada. The West-Cree syllabic script was developed by missionaries in the late 19th and early 20th centuries to facilitate reading and writing among Cree speakers. In digital text, U+1415 serves as a single unit of meaning within these syllabic scripts, representing a phonemic sound or syllable rather than an independent word. As part of the West-Cree language, it plays a vital role in preserving and promoting the cultural identity and heritage of Cree speakers. In terms of linguistic context, U+1415 is a crucial component of the orthography of these languages, helping to maintain their unique phonetic structure.
