Description

U+1866 is the Unicode character code for "MONGOLIAN LETTER SIBE PA". In the realm of digital text, this character holds significant importance, as it is one of the 29 characters that constitute the Mongolian script. The Mongolian script, created in the 13th century and used primarily for writing the Mongolian language, has its roots in the Uyghur script. Each character, including Sibe PA, contributes to the uniqueness of this written language which is spoken by millions of people in Inner Mongolia, Tibet, Buryatia, Tuva, and other regions. The Mongolian script's utilization has been instrumental in preserving and promoting the cultural heritage of the Mongolian-speaking communities across the world. The character U+1866, specifically, is part of a subgroup of characters known as 'Mongolian Supplement', added to the Unicode Standard in April 2009, with version 5.3.0, to extend the support for the Mongolian script and allow for more precise digital text representation. As with all Unicode characters, U+1866 is assigned a specific positioning order in the text based on its numerical code point, ensuring accurate character rendering across various devices and platforms.

How to type the symbol on Windows

Hold Alt and type 6246 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+1866. 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+1866 to binary: 00011000 01100110. 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 10100001 10100110
