Description

The Unicode character U+0B19, also known as ORIYA LETTER NGA, holds a significant position in the Oriya language, a major Indian language spoken primarily in the states of Odisha and West Bengal. This character is a crucial component of the Oriya script, which is derived from the ancient Brahmi script. In digital text, U+0B19 serves as a building block for encoding Oriya words, ensuring accurate representation and communication of the language's nuances. Its typical usage involves forming syllables and words within the Oriya script system, where it can appear as either an independent letter or in combination with other letters to form complex consonant clusters. The character U+0B19 is a vital element in preserving the linguistic heritage of the Oriya language and facilitating its use in digital communications and documentation.

How to type the symbol on Windows

Hold Alt and type 2841 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+0B19. 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+0B19 to binary: 00001011 00011001. 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 10101100 10011001
