Description

U+1086, or MYANMAR VOWEL SIGN SHAN FINAL Y, is a Unicode character that plays an essential role in digital text representation, specifically in the Myanmar language. This character signifies the final vowel 'Y' in the Shan dialect, one of the many languages spoken in Myanmar. The Shan language, like other regional languages, has its own unique script, which is distinct from the Myanmar (Burmese) script used for official purposes. The U+1086 character ensures that digital texts in the Shan script are accurately transcribed and interpreted by computer systems and software, thereby preserving linguistic integrity and cultural identity in an increasingly interconnected world. By facilitating precise and reliable encoding of Myanmar regional languages, this Unicode character contributes to the ongoing effort of preserving and promoting linguistic diversity online.

How to type the symbol on Windows

Hold Alt and type 4230 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+1086. 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+1086 to binary: 00010000 10000110. 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 10000010 10000110
