Description

The Unicode character U+01E0 represents the "LATIN CAPITAL LETTER A WITH DOT ABOVE AND MACRON." This character is primarily used in digital text for typographical purposes, often to provide emphasis or clarity in certain words or phrases. It combines two diacritical marks: a dot above the letter 'A' and a macron, which is a horizontal line that extends across the whole character. In linguistic contexts, this character can be found in various languages such as French, Polish, Portuguese, and others where it serves to modify pronunciation or stress. The U+01E0 character is part of the Latin Extended-A Unicode block, which includes additional letters and symbols necessary for representing a wide range of languages and regional variations within the Latin script family. Overall, this character is an important component of typography and language representation in digital text.

How to type the Ǡ symbol on Windows

Hold Alt and type 0480 on the numpad. Or use Character Map.

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

    The character Ǡ has the Unicode code point U+01E0. 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+01E0 to binary: 00000001 11100000. 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:
