Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ᔨ has the Unicode code point U+1528. 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+1528 to binary:
00010101 00101000. 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 10101000

Description
The Unicode character U+1528 represents the "CANADIAN SYLLABICS YI" (Y). This glyph is a crucial component of the Canadian Aboriginal Syllabics, which is a set of writing systems used in various First Nations and Inuit languages across Canada. Each symbol in these syllabaries represents a consonant-vowel pair or a standalone vowel, allowing for the precise articulation of phonetic sounds and word structures in these Indigenous languages. The Canadian Aboriginal Syllabics are widely utilized in educational contexts, religious texts, and cultural preservation efforts within Indigenous communities across Canada, as they facilitate the transmission of traditional knowledge and oral histories while also fostering literacy among speakers of these languages.
