Description

The Unicode character U+1C25, also known as Lepcha Subjoined Letter Ra, holds a vital position within the Lepcha language's script system. As a member of the Tibetan block within the Indic script family, it is integral to the digital representation of this unique language. Its typical usage in digital text involves serving as a base form for constructing compound characters when combined with other script elements. The Lepcha script is primarily used by the Lepcha people residing in the northern regions of West Bengal in India and Sikkim in India, making U+1C25 an essential character in preserving and promoting this culturally significant language.

How to type the symbol on Windows

Hold Alt and type 7205 on the numpad. Or use Character Map.

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

    The character has the Unicode code point U+1C25. In UTF-8, it is encoded using 3 bytes because its codepoint is in the range of 0x0800 to 0xffff.

    Therefore we know that the UTF-8 encoding will be done over 16 bits within the final 24 bits and that it will have the format: 1110xxxx 10xxxxxx 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+1C25 to binary: 00011100 00100101. 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:
    11100001 10110000 10100101
