Description

The Unicode character U+10D7 represents the Georgian letter "Tan" (Ჷ). In digital text systems, it serves as a crucial component of the Mkhedruli script, which is used for writing the modern Georgian language. This script was developed in the 9th century and has been continuously employed since then. As part of the Georgian alphabet, U+10D7 contributes to the unique typographical characteristics and cultural identity of Georgian written texts. In terms of linguistic significance, the letter "Tan" is phonetically distinct from other letters in the Georgian script, representing a specific sound in the language. While U+10D7 may not be widely recognized outside its primary cultural context, it plays an essential role in preserving and promoting the Georgian language, literature, and heritage within its native community.

How to type the symbol on Windows

Hold Alt and type 4311 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+10D7. 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+10D7 to binary: 00010000 11010111. 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 10000011 10010111
