Description

U+04F3, also known as CYRILLIC SMALL LETTER U WITH DOUBLE ACUTE, is a specialized character in the Unicode standard. It plays an essential role in digital text by representing a unique letter form in the Cyrillic script, specifically the small uppercase letter 'У'. This letter is commonly used in multiple languages that employ the Cyrillic alphabet, such as Russian, Ukrainian, Bulgarian, and others. The character's name, "CYRILLIC SMALL LETTER U WITH DOUBLE ACUTE," describes its function and appearance, where two diacritical marks (the acute accents) are placed above the base letter 'У'. These acute accents are essential for maintaining linguistic accuracy in the written form of these languages. In digital communication and text processing, U+04F3 ensures accurate representation and interpretation of Cyrillic texts, facilitating effective communication across different platforms and devices.

How to type the ӳ symbol on Windows

Hold Alt and type 1267 on the numpad. Or use Character Map.

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

    The character ӳ has the Unicode code point U+04F3. 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+04F3 to binary: 00000100 11110011. 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:
    11010011 10110011
