Description

U+1868, the Mongolian Letter Sibe Ta, is a unique character within the Unicode Standard, specifically designed for representing the Mongolian script. In digital text, it holds a significant role in accurately translating and displaying Mongolian language content. The Mongolian script, which uses the Unicode block U+10000 to U+10255, consists of 27 letters and is predominantly used for writing in the Mongolian languages, primarily Khalkha and other dialects. As part of the extended Mongolian script, the Sibe Ta character contributes to the rich cultural and linguistic heritage of the Mongolian-speaking communities. While not as widely recognized as other scripts, U+1868 plays a vital role in maintaining the integrity of digital texts for these languages.

How to type the symbol on Windows

Hold Alt and type 6248 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+1868. 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+1868 to binary: 00011000 01101000. 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 10101000
