Description

The Cherokee Letter HU (U+13B1) is a character from the Cherokee script, which was developed by Sequoyah in the early 19th century for the written representation of the Cherokee language. As part of the Unicode Standard, U+13B1 is used to represent the "h" sound in the Cherokee language. Its usage is primarily within digital texts that involve the Cherokee language, allowing for accurate and consistent representation across various platforms and devices. The Cherokee script holds significant cultural and linguistic importance as it helps preserve the Cherokee language and culture.

How to type the symbol on Windows

Hold Alt and type 5041 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+13B1. 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+13B1 to binary: 00010011 10110001. 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 10110001
