Description

The Unicode character U+19CC, also known as CHARACTER 19CC, holds a significant position in digital typography. It is primarily used to represent the 'MODIFIER LATIN SMALL LETTER A' in various scripts and text encoding systems. In its role, it often functions as a modifier or diacritic for other characters, altering their pronunciation, meaning, or visual appearance. Its importance lies not only in its contribution to the richness of language but also in enabling accurate representation of diverse linguistic contexts in digital text. CHARACTER 19CC is particularly prevalent in languages that use diacritics extensively, such as Polish and Hungarian, where it serves to modify vowels or consonants. However, its usage extends beyond these languages, illustrating the versatility of Unicode in accommodating a wide range of scripts and languages globally.

How to type the symbol on Windows

Hold Alt and type 6604 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+19CC. 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+19CC to binary: 00011001 11001100. 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 10100111 10001100
