Description

The Unicode character U+13AD, also known as Cherokee Letter HA, holds a significant position in the world of typography and digital text. This unique character is an integral part of the Cherokee syllabary, which was developed by Sequoyah in the early 19th century. The Cherokee syllabary represents one of the earliest and most sophisticated writing systems created by indigenous peoples in North America. In digital text, U+13AD is typically used to represent the phonetic elements of the Cherokee language, which has been revitalized in recent years through efforts such as the creation of the Unicode Standard. This character, along with other characters from the Cherokee syllabary, plays a vital role in preserving and promoting the linguistic heritage of the Cherokee Nation. The use of U+13AD in digital text reflects both its cultural significance and its technical importance in representing diverse languages and scripts through the Unicode Standard.

How to type the symbol on Windows

Hold Alt and type 5037 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+13AD. 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+13AD to binary: 00010011 10101101. 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 10001110 10101101
