Description

U+0164, the Latin Capital Letter T with Caron, is a typographical character within the Unicode standard, which represents the uppercase form of the letter "T" with an acute accent (caron) added. This character is primarily used in digital text to represent the sound [ʃ] in various Slavic languages, such as Czech and Slovak. In these languages, it serves a vital role in phonetics, helping differentiate words with similar orthographies but distinct pronunciations. U+0164's usage in digital text ensures accurate representation of these linguistic nuances, contributing to effective communication and proper language understanding among speakers of Slavic tongues. The character also adheres to the Unicode standard's goal of supporting a wide range of scripts, promoting diversity and inclusivity within written communication.

How to type the Ť symbol on Windows

Hold Alt and type 0356 on the numpad. Or use Character Map.

  1. Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout

    The character Ť has the Unicode code point U+0164. In UTF-8, it is encoded using 2 bytes because its codepoint is in the range of 0x0080 to 0x07ff.

    Therefore we know that the UTF-8 encoding will be done over 11 bits within the final 16 bits and that it will have the format: 110xxxxx 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+0164 to binary: 00000001 01100100. 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:
