Description

The Unicode character U+3334, also known as SQUARE BUSSYERU, is a lesser-known symbol primarily used in digital text for typographical purposes. While it does not have any widely recognized cultural, linguistic, or technical significance, its presence in the Unicode standard reflects the comprehensive nature of this encoding system. The SQUARE BUSSYERU character is part of a group of non-standard characters included in the Unicode range reserved for private use and personal use. These characters allow users to create custom symbols for specific applications or to reserve space for future expansion of the Unicode standard. As such, its typical usage in digital text is mostly limited to these specialized contexts, where it may serve as a placeholder or be employed in unique typographical designs.

How to type the symbol on Windows

Hold Alt and type 13108 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+3334. 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+3334 to binary: 00110011 00110100. 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:
    11100011 10001100 10110100
