Description

The Unicode character U+1005 represents the "MYANMAR LETTER CA" in digital text. This character is a part of the Myanmar script, which belongs to the Tai-Muan group of scripts, all of which are derived from Old Mon and Old Khmer scripts. In digital texts, particularly those that utilize the Myanmar language, U+1005 serves as an essential component for transcribing words and phrases accurately. The Myanmar script is primarily used in Myanmar (formerly known as Burma), which is a Southeast Asian nation located in the region of the Indian subcontinent. The use of this character, along with other characters in the Myanmar script, facilitates communication and preserves linguistic heritage within the country. Additionally, the Myanmar script has gained prominence in recent years due to the increased accessibility of digital technology and the internet. In terms of technical context, U+1005 is encoded under the "Myanmar" block in Unicode Standard. This block covers all characters needed for the Myanmar script, including consonants, vowels, and diacritics. It's important to note that the usage of these characters might vary depending on the specific language or dialect being used within the broader Burmese linguistic context. In summary, U+1005 (MYANMAR LETTER CA) is a critical element in digital texts involving the Myanmar script, allowing for accurate representation and communication of the Myanmar language.

How to type the symbol on Windows

Hold Alt and type 4101 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+1005. 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+1005 to binary: 00010000 00000101. 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 10000000 10000101
