Description

The Unicode character U+2C0D is the Glagolitic Capital Letter Kako, a symbol from the Glagolitic script which was developed in the 9th century in the First Bulgarian Empire by the disciples of Saint Cyril, who created the script based on the Greek alphabet. This character holds significant historical and cultural importance, as it has been used to represent various sounds in Slavic languages. In digital text, U+2C0D serves an essential role in preserving the linguistic heritage of Old Church Slavonic and related languages. It also helps maintain typographical consistency in texts that require the use of Glagolitic script for accurate representation or artistic purposes.

How to type the symbol on Windows

Hold Alt and type 11277 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+2C0D. 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+2C0D to binary: 00101100 00001101. 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:
    11100010 10110000 10001101
