Description

The character U+2C2D, or GLAGOLITIC CAPITAL LETTER TROKUTASTI A, holds a significant position in the realm of typography and digital text. It is an integral part of the Glagolitic script, which predates the Cyrillic alphabet and was used primarily for writing Old Church Slavonic, the liturgical language of the Eastern Orthodox Church. The Glagolitic script originated in the First Bulgarian Empire during the 9th century and is considered a crucial precursor to modern Slavic languages and scripts. In digital text, U+2C2D serves as an important representation of the Glagolitic alphabet's rich cultural history and linguistic development. It plays a vital role in maintaining the accuracy and authenticity of historical documents and literary works written in Old Church Slavonic. By preserving the unique characteristics of this ancient script, U+2C2D contributes to the broader understanding of global cultural heritage and linguistic diversity.

How to type the symbol on Windows

Hold Alt and type 11309 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+2C2D. 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+2C2D to binary: 00101100 00101101. 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 10101101
