Description

U+105F is a character in the Myanmar consonant script, which is part of the Unicode Standard. The Myanmar Consonant Sign MON MEDIAL MA (U+105F) has a significant role in digital text as it represents a specific sound or phoneme used in the Burmese language. This character is used to transcribe and represent the medial form of the 'ma' consonant, which occurs between vowels or other consonants within words, and helps in the accurate representation of the complex syllabic structure of the Myanmar script. The use of this character is essential for the proper digital encoding and display of text in the Burmese language, as it contributes to maintaining its cultural integrity and facilitates effective communication among native speakers.

How to type the symbol on Windows

Hold Alt and type 4191 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+105F. 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+105F to binary: 00010000 01011111. 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 10000001 10011111
