Description

U+04ED, also known as Cyrillic Small Letter E with Diacritical Mark, is a crucial character in the Unicode system. Its typical usage involves representing an extended version of the Cyrillic letter 'E' in digital text. The diacritical mark distinguishes it from the regular Cyrillic small letter 'E' (U+042D). This particular character plays a significant role in several languages that use the Cyrillic script, such as Russian, Ukrainian, and Bulgarian. In these languages, it helps differentiate between similar phonetic sounds or represents distinct meanings. As for its cultural, linguistic, and technical context, U+04ED is essential for accurate representation of text in various Slavic and Eastern European languages, ensuring proper readability and comprehension of digital materials. Its inclusion in the Unicode system facilitates seamless communication and exchange of information across different platforms and devices worldwide.

How to type the ӭ symbol on Windows

Hold Alt and type 1261 on the numpad. Or use Character Map.

  1. Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout

    The character ӭ has the Unicode code point U+04ED. 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+04ED to binary: 00000100 11101101. 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:
