Description

The Unicode character U+0489 represents the COMBINING CYRILLIC MILLIONS SIGN. This symbol is primarily used in digital text to denote the millions place value in a number within the Cyrillic script, which is predominantly used in languages such as Russian, Ukrainian, and Bulgarian. It is typically combined with other numerals or characters to convey a complete numerical figure or unit. The COMBINING CYRILLIC MILLIONS SIGN holds no cultural significance on its own but serves a vital role in accurately representing large numbers within the Cyrillic language system. In technical contexts, this character helps maintain accuracy and clarity in digital text by providing a clear distinction between the millions place and other numerical values.

How to type the ҉ symbol on Windows

Hold Alt and type 1161 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+0489. In UTF-8, it is encoded using 2 bytes because its codepoint is in the range of 0x0080 to 0x07ff.

    Therefore we know that the UTF-8 encoding will be done over 11 bits within the final 16 bits and that it will have the format: 110xxxxx 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+0489 to binary: 00000100 10001001. 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:
