Description

The Unicode character U+1831 represents the Mongolian letter "Ша" (Sha). This particular character plays a pivotal role in digital text by enabling accurate representation of the Mongolian language, which is primarily spoken in Mongolia and parts of Russia. In the context of linguistics, this letter is part of the extended Cyrillic script adopted by the Mongolian language, following its replacement of the traditional vertical script in the 1930s during the Soviet influence. It is important to note that U+1831's accurate representation aids in maintaining cultural heritage and facilitating communication among speakers of the Mongolian language. From a technical standpoint, this character, like all Unicode characters, is encoded using a unique numeric code point to ensure consistent rendering across various platforms and software applications. This standardization of text encoding is essential for global communication and preservation of linguistic diversity.

How to type the symbol on Windows

Hold Alt and type 6193 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+1831. 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+1831 to binary: 00011000 00110001. 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 10100000 10110001
