nope. you are likely thinking about the UTF-8 feature of being backwards-compatible with USASCII encoding. However, [UTF-8 is a multi-byte encoding form](http://www.unicode.org/glossary/#utf_8_encoding_form). 

[UTF-8](http://www.unicode.org/glossary/#UTF_8): A **multibyte encoding** for text that represents each Unicode character with 1 to 4 bytes, and which is backward-compatible with ASCII.
