Description

U+13F0, known as CHEROKEE LETTER YE, is a significant character in the Cherokee language and Unicode system. The Cherokee script, which includes this letter, was developed by Sequoyah in the early 19th century to write the Cherokee language. This unique script comprises 86 letters, including CHEROKEE LETTER YE (U+13F0), which plays a vital role in digital text representation for the Cherokee language. The use of this character allows users to accurately transcribe and display texts in Cherokee, thus preserving and promoting cultural heritage. In terms of technical context, CHEROKEE LETTER YE is part of the Cherokee block, which was added to Unicode version 3.1 in June 2000 to support the Cherokee script. Today, its usage is primarily found in digital communication and documentation involving the Cherokee language and culture.

How to type the symbol on Windows

Hold Alt and type 5104 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+13F0. 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+13F0 to binary: 00010011 11110000. 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 10110000
