Description

The Unicode character U+01BE, known as the "Latin Letter Inverted Glottal Stop With Stroke," is a less commonly used typographical symbol in the digital text space. This character does not have a standardized usage or role in any particular language due to its unique appearance and lack of widespread recognition. The Latin Letter Inverted Glottal Stop With Stroke is an experimental letter, created by adding a vertical stroke through the uppercase "h" shape of the regular glottal stop (U+0293) character. This stylized letter could be used for artistic purposes or as a creative typographical element in design projects, where its unique appearance might add visual interest or convey a specific message. However, it's important to note that its usage may not follow standard language rules and might require additional context for interpretation. In summary, the U+01BE character is an unconventional Latin letter variant with a vertical stroke, often employed in creative or artistic digital text applications but lacking in widespread usage due to its experimental nature and lack of linguistic role.

How to type the ƾ symbol on Windows

Hold Alt and type 0446 on the numpad. Or use Character Map.

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

    The character ƾ has the Unicode code point U+01BE. 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+01BE to binary: 00000001 10111110. 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 10111110
