Description

The Unicode character U+076D represents the Arabic letter 'seen' with two dots placed vertically above it. In its typical usage in digital text, this character is used within the Arabic script to represent a specific sound or phoneme, as is common with other characters in the Arabic alphabet. The character can be found in various fonts and is employed in applications that support Arabic typography. This particular Arabic letter may have notable cultural or linguistic context in regions where Arabic script is widely used, such as the Middle East and North Africa. However, its usage might be less common due to the character's more specialized nature, with the two vertical dots potentially causing difficulties for those unfamiliar with the Arabic script. In terms of technical aspects, U+076D 'seen' follows Unicode standards, enabling interoperability and consistent rendering across different platforms and devices. It is important to note that accurate representation of this character depends on the availability of a font capable of supporting the specific glyph variant with two vertical dots above the letter.

How to type the ݭ symbol on Windows

Hold Alt and type 1901 on the numpad. Or use Character Map.

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

    The character ݭ has the Unicode code point U+076D. 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+076D to binary: 00000111 01101101. 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:
