Description

The Unicode character U+0A61 represents the Cyrillic capital letter A with stroke through the center (CHARACTER 0A61). This character is typically used in digital text for various purposes, such as representing words or phrases in languages that use the Cyrillic script. One of the most notable cultural, linguistic, and technical contexts where U+0A61 appears frequently is in the Ukrainian language, particularly in its historical variants like Old Church Slavonic and Old Ukrainian. In these languages, U+0A61 is employed as a part of the Cyrillic alphabet and serves to distinguish certain phonetic or grammatical aspects of the language. Its role in digital text is crucial for accurate representation and communication in these contexts, ensuring proper translations, readability, and cultural authenticity.

How to type the symbol on Windows

Hold Alt and type 2657 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+0A61. 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+0A61 to binary: 00001010 01100001. 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 10101001 10100001
