Description

U+0B54 is a character in the Unicode Standard that represents the Syriac letter Qoppa in digital text. This character primarily serves its role as an alphabetic symbol within the Syriac script, which was historically used for writing Middle Aramaic and Classical Syriac, and is still utilized today for Eastern Aramaic languages such as Aramaic, Assyrian, and Chaldean. The Qoppa (Q) holds its position at the 15th letter in the alphabet, following the Aleph (A) and preceding the Resh (R). U+0B54's inclusion in Unicode ensures that digital communication can be inclusive of these languages while maintaining accurate representation and facilitating seamless text conversion.

How to type the symbol on Windows

Hold Alt and type 2900 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+0B54. 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+0B54 to binary: 00001011 01010100. 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:
    11100000 10101101 10010100
