Description

The Unicode character U+1029, MYANMAR LETTER O, is a crucial component of the Myanmar script, which belongs to the Brahmic family of writing systems. In digital text, this character typically represents the consonant-vowel combination "O" in Myanmar language. This script is predominantly used for written communication in Myanmar, formerly known as Burma, a Southeast Asian country with a rich cultural and linguistic heritage. The MYANMAR LETTER O plays a significant role in rendering the pronunciation and meaning of words accurately in the Myanmar language, which has a syllabic structure similar to other Brahmic scripts. The Unicode standard ensures that digital text encoded with U+1029 maintains its correct form across various platforms and applications, thereby facilitating seamless communication and information exchange for the Myanmar-speaking community. As part of the comprehensive effort towards digitalization and global connectivity, the inclusion of characters like MYANMAR LETTER O in Unicode helps preserve and promote linguistic diversity, cultural identity, and intellectual property rights.

How to type the symbol on Windows

Hold Alt and type 4137 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+1029. 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+1029 to binary: 00010000 00101001. 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 10101001
