Description

The Unicode character U+0A80 (CHARACTER 0A80) is primarily used in the Syriac script, representing a specific vowel mark or diacritical sign in the language. This symbol plays a vital role in differentiating the meaning of words and maintaining accurate communication within the Syriac-speaking community. As a part of the larger Unicode Standard, this character contributes to the digitization of various languages and scripts around the world, enabling diverse cultural expression and understanding through digital text. In a broader context, U+0A80 is one example of how Unicode aims to represent the rich typographical heritage of different languages, facilitating global communication and appreciation for linguistic diversity.

How to type the symbol on Windows

Hold Alt and type 2688 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+0A80. 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+0A80 to binary: 00001010 10000000. 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:
    11100000 10101010 10000000
