Description

The Unicode character U+10BA represents the Georgian Capital Letter Can (Ⴐ). This letter is part of the Georgian script, which has been in use since the 5th century AD. It is essential for encoding digital text in the Georgian language and plays a crucial role in maintaining linguistic accuracy and cultural heritage. U+10BA is used to represent the consonant sound /kʼ/, similar to the English "k" but with distinctive phonetic features found only in the Georgian language. The Georgian script, of which U+10BA is a part, is unique for its use of diacritics and cursive connections between letters, contributing to the rich history and cultural identity of Georgia.

How to type the symbol on Windows

Hold Alt and type 4282 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+10BA. 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+10BA to binary: 00010000 10111010. 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 10000010 10111010
