Description

The Unicode character U+0875, Arabic Letter Alef with Attached Bottom Right Kasra (الـ‎), is a crucial element in the Arabic script system. Its role is primarily seen in digital text representation for the Arabic language. The Alef character is the first letter of the Arabic alphabet and holds a significant linguistic position, as it serves as a root letter that creates new words when combined with other letters. This specific character, Alef with Attached Bottom Right Kasra (الـ‎), is unique due to the attached kasra, which is a diacritical mark above or below the base character, in this case, the bottom right of the alef letter. In terms of technical context, Unicode provides a standardized encoding for characters across different platforms and systems. Therefore, U+0875 ensures consistency in digital text representation of Arabic script across various devices and applications.

How to type the symbol on Windows

Hold Alt and type 2165 on the numpad. Or use Character Map.

  1. Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout

    The character has the Unicode code point U+0875. In UTF-8, it is encoded using 3 bytes because its codepoint is in the range of 0x0800 to 0xffff.

    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 the x are the payload bits.

    UTF-8 Encoding bit layout by codepoint range
    Codepoint RangeBytesBit patternPayload length
    U+0000 - U+007F10xxxxxxx7 bits
    U+0080 - U+07FF2110xxxxx 10xxxxxx11 bits
    U+0800 - U+FFFF31110xxxx 10xxxxxx 10xxxxxx16 bits
    U+10000 - U+10FFFF411110xxx 10xxxxxx 10xxxxxx 10xxxxxx21 bits
  2. Step 2: Obtain the payload bits:

    Convert the hexadecimal code point U+0875 to binary: 00001000 01110101. Those are the payload bits.

  3. 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:
    11100000 10100001 10110101
