Description

The Unicode character U+2C51 represents the Glagolitic Small Letter Yati (២). This character plays a crucial role in digital text, particularly within texts that utilize the ancient Glagolitic script, which was developed in the 9th century by the Slavic Apostles Saints Cyril and Methodius for the translation of religious texts into the Old Church Slavonic language. The Glagolitic script, with its unique set of symbols, has a rich historical significance as it laid the foundation for many modern Slavic alphabets, such as the Cyrillic script widely used in Russian, Bulgarian, and Serbian languages today. In digital text, U+2C51 enables accurate representation of Glagolitic documents, preserving their cultural and historical contexts for future generations.

How to type the symbol on Windows

Hold Alt and type 11345 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+2C51. 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+2C51 to binary: 00101100 01010001. 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 10110001 10010001
