Description

The Unicode character U+10E3 represents the Georgian letter "Ჷ" (UN), which is used within the Mkhedruli script of the Georgian language. This script, along with the old Georgian scripts Mtavruli and Asomtavruli, is widely used in digital text for written communication in Georgia. The Mkhedruli script is derived from the Arabic script and was adopted as the official script of the modern Georgian language in the 19th century. U+10E3 holds significance in typography and linguistics due to its role in representing the unique phonological and morphological characteristics of the Georgian language, which is part of the Kartvelian language family.

How to type the symbol on Windows

Hold Alt and type 4323 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+10E3. 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+10E3 to binary: 00010000 11100011. 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 10100011
