Description

U+018A is the Unicode code point representing the Latin Capital Letter D with Hook (ᄾ). In digital text, this character serves as a typographical variant of the standard uppercase 'D' in certain typefaces, often used for stylistic purposes or to reflect specific cultural, linguistic, or technical contexts. The unique hook-like design of this letter distinguishes it from other variations and contributes to its role in visual communication across various media platforms. It is particularly notable in the Korean language where it is part of the Jongseong block and used for writing words borrowed from Chinese or foreign languages, as well as serving an ornamental purpose.

How to type the Ɗ symbol on Windows

Hold Alt and type 0394 on the numpad. Or use Character Map.

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

    The character Ɗ has the Unicode code point U+018A. 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+018A to binary: 00000001 10001010. 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:
    11000110 10001010
