Description

U+1872 is a character in Unicode, which represents the Mongolian letter Sibe Zha (𑂢). This character plays an essential role in digital text, particularly within the Mongolian script system, which is used to write the Mongolian language. The Mongolian script was derived from the ancient Tibetan script and later adapted with influences from the Chinese script. As a letter of the Mongolian alphabet, Sibe Zha has a specific position in phonetic representation and helps convey distinct sounds in the language. It is important to note that the Mongolian script is primarily used in Inner Mongolia, a region within China, as well as among ethnic Mongols living in other parts of the world. Its usage reflects a rich cultural history and linguistic heritage that showcases the unique identity of the Mongolian people.

How to type the symbol on Windows

Hold Alt and type 6258 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+1872. 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+1872 to binary: 00011000 01110010. 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 10110010
