Description

The Unicode character U+100D represents the Myanmar letter "DDa" (ဒ်), a member of the Myanmar script used primarily in the Burmese language. In digital text, this character serves as a building block for constructing words and phrases in Myanmar's written form. Myanmar, formerly known as Burma, is a Southeast Asian country where the Burmese language is predominantly spoken by its people. The script, composed of 35 consonants and 14 vowels, has evolved over centuries and is now standardized using Unicode to facilitate accurate digital representation and exchange of text across various platforms and devices. U+100D plays a crucial role in preserving the cultural identity and linguistic integrity of the Burmese language in the digital age, as it helps maintain the correct pronunciation, meaning, and context of words within written Burmese texts.

How to type the symbol on Windows

Hold Alt and type 4109 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+100D. 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+100D to binary: 00010000 00001101. 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 10001101
