The Unicode character U+1B22, known as the Balinese Letter Ta (ᮢ), is a critical component of the Balinese script, which belongs to the Javanese-Balinese family of scripts. Typically employed in digital text, it plays an essential role in representing and encoding the Balinese language, predominantly used in Bali, Indonesia. The Balinese script has its origins in the Sanskrit script and is closely related to the Javanese script. U+1B22 contributes significantly to preserving cultural identity by facilitating the representation of the diverse linguistic landscape of the Balinese people, thus fostering communication, education, and cultural heritage conservation.

How to type the symbol on Windows

Hold Alt and type 6946 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+1B22. 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+1B22 to binary: 00011011 00100010. 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:
    11100001 10101100 10100010
