Description

The Unicode character U+01D7 represents the Latin capital letter "U" with a diaeresis (also known as an umlaut) and acute accent. This character is commonly used in digital text to represent specific phonetic or orthographic features in various languages, such as German, Swedish, Finnish, and other Scandinavian languages. In these languages, the U+01D7 character serves to modify the pronunciation of the letter "U" by emphasizing a specific sound or vowel quality. The diaeresis denotes a schwa sound, while the acute accent indicates a short, open-mid unrounded vowel sound. This character is essential in digital typography for accurately representing these sounds and maintaining the integrity of the original text's linguistic and cultural context.

How to type the Ǘ symbol on Windows

Hold Alt and type 0471 on the numpad. Or use Character Map.

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

    The character Ǘ has the Unicode code point U+01D7. 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+01D7 to binary: 00000001 11010111. 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:
