Description

U+1AD1 is a unique Unicode character that holds significant importance in the realm of typography and digital text. It represents a specific symbol from the Syloti Nagri script, which is predominantly used for writing the Sindhi language. The Syloti Nagri script is an abugida, meaning that it uses a base character for consonants and includes inherent vowels. U+1AD1 specifically denotes a conjunct consonant in this script, combining the basic "L" sound with the inherent vowel "u". This combination enables users to type Sindhi text more efficiently and accurately using digital devices. While its usage may be limited to specific languages and cultures, it plays a crucial role for those who rely on the Syloti Nagri script for their written communication needs.

How to type the symbol on Windows

Hold Alt and type 6865 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+1AD1. 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+1AD1 to binary: 00011010 11010001. 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 10101011 10010001
