Description

U+1FA4 is a unique Unicode character representing the Greek small letter Omega with Psili and Oxia and Ypogeogrammeni. This symbol plays a crucial role in digital text, particularly within typography and linguistics, as it combines three distinct diacritical marks: Psili (a dot below), Oxia (an acute accent), and Ypogeogrammeni (two dots above). The combination of these symbols allows for the accurate representation of specific pronunciation or emphasis in Greek language texts. In digital communication, U+1FA4 provides a precise way to convey nuances within written Greek, aiding in maintaining linguistic accuracy across various platforms and applications.

How to type the symbol on Windows

Hold Alt and type 8100 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+1FA4. 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+1FA4 to binary: 00011111 10100100. 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 10111110 10100100
