Description

The Unicode character U+1030, known as MYANMAR VOWEL SIGN UU, plays a significant role in the Myanmar language (Burmese), which is primarily spoken in Myanmar (formerly Burma) and by Myanmar expatriates worldwide. This Unicode character forms part of the Myanmar script, which consists of 33 consonants, 14 vowel signs, and four primary tones, thereby contributing to the rich linguistic heritage of Myanmar. Its typical usage in digital text is to denote the long /uː/ sound when combined with certain consonants, allowing for a more accurate representation of the phonetic structure of words. It's essential to understand that the MYANMAR VOWEL SIGN UU holds cultural and linguistic significance, as it contributes to the correct representation and interpretation of Myanmar texts in digital platforms. The use of Unicode characters like U+1030 ensures accurate encoding, storage, and transmission of text data across different systems and devices, thereby preserving the integrity of Myanmar language for future generations.

How to type the symbol on Windows

Hold Alt and type 4144 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+1030. 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+1030 to binary: 00010000 00110000. 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 10110000
