Description

The Unicode character U+1CB1 represents the Georgian Mtavruli Capital Letter He (Ჷ). This character is used in digital text to represent the 16th letter of the Georgian alphabet, known as 'He' or 'H'. In the Georgian script, each letter has a unique visual form and phonetic value. The Mtavruli script, which includes this character, is one of three ancient Georgian scripts - the others being Asomtavruli and Nuskhuri. U+1CB1 has significant cultural and linguistic importance as it serves as a key element in preserving and promoting the rich history and heritage of the Georgian language, which dates back over 3,000 years. The Mtavruli script was created during the period when Georgia was under the rule of the Sassanid Empire, and it is considered to be one of the first examples of a full-fledged alphabetic system in the world. This character, as well as the rest of the Mtavruli script, is used in digital communication, typography, and publishing to accurately represent the Georgian language, promoting its continued use and preservation for future generations.

How to type the symbol on Windows

Hold Alt and type 7345 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+1CB1. 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+1CB1 to binary: 00011100 10110001. 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 10110010 10110001
