Description

The Unicode character U+1274, known as ETHIOPIC SYLLABLE TEE, holds a significant position within the Ethiopic (Ge'ez) script, an ancient writing system predominantly used in Ethiopia. In digital text, this character primarily serves to form part of larger words and phrases in the Ethiopic language, contributing to its rich and diverse vocabulary. The ETHIOPIC SYLLABLE TEE is one of over 500 distinct characters within the Ge'ez script, which has been in use for over a millennium and holds great cultural and linguistic significance for Ethiopia and Eritrea. It's also crucial to note that this character, like other Ethiopic script characters, is written from right to left, which is an essential aspect of its technical context within digital text processing systems.

How to type the symbol on Windows

Hold Alt and type 4724 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+1274. 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.

    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+1274 to binary: 00010010 01110100. 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 10001001 10110100
