Description

The Unicode character U+13CE is known as CHEROKEE LETTER SE. In the realm of digital text, this character holds a significant position in the Cherokee language, which is part of the larger Iroquoian language family. As an alphabetic script unique to the Cherokee people, it represents a specific phoneme or sound in their language. U+13CE has been incorporated into the Unicode Standard since version 5.0 (2006), making it accessible for digital communication and representation of the Cherokee language globally. Its use in linguistic, cultural, and technical contexts serves to preserve and promote the rich heritage of the Cherokee people, while simultaneously contributing to the broader diversity of world languages represented in modern technology.

How to type the symbol on Windows

Hold Alt and type 5070 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+13CE. 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+13CE to binary: 00010011 11001110. 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 10001111 10001110
