Description

U+0771 is an Arabic character known as "ARABIC LETTER REH WITH SMALL ARABIC LETTER TAH AND TWO DOTS." In digital text, it serves a specific role in representing the Arabic script, which is one of the most widely spoken languages globally. The character combines three distinct elements: the base letter 'reh' (ع), the small letter 'tah' (ط), and two dots above the combination. This unique typographic representation allows for greater expressivity in written Arabic, aiding in the accurate transmission of meaning and intent in various linguistic and cultural contexts. As an expert in Unicode and typography, it is essential to understand that U+0771, like all other characters in the Unicode system, contributes to the rich tapestry of global communication by providing a consistent way to encode, display, and interpret text across different devices and platforms.

How to type the ݱ symbol on Windows

Hold Alt and type 1905 on the numpad. Or use Character Map.

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

    The character ݱ has the Unicode code point U+0771. In UTF-8, it is encoded using 2 bytes because its codepoint is in the range of 0x0080 to 0x07ff.

    Therefore we know that the UTF-8 encoding will be done over 11 bits within the final 16 bits and that it will have the format: 110xxxxx 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+0771 to binary: 00000111 01110001. 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:
