Description

The Unicode character U+2C0F, known as GLAGOLITIC CAPITAL LETTER MYSLITE, is a crucial element in the Glagolitic script, which holds historical significance for the Slavic nations, particularly in Bulgaria. As one of the earliest writing systems used for Old Church Slavonic, it played a pivotal role in the cultural and religious development of these nations. In digital text, U+2C0F is employed to represent the phonetic value 'm' or 'my', contributing to the accurate representation of texts written in Glagolitic script. The character's inclusion in Unicode underscores its importance for maintaining linguistic and cultural heritage in a rapidly digitizing world.

How to type the symbol on Windows

Hold Alt and type 11279 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+2C0F. 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+2C0F to binary: 00101100 00001111. 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 10001111
