Description

U+1D65, also known as Latin Subscript Small Letter V, is a typographical character that holds significant importance in the realm of digital text. It belongs to the Unicode Standard, which provides a unique numerical code for every character, symbol, or emoji used across various digital platforms and devices. The primary role of U+1D65 is to represent a lowercase letter 'v' with a subscript notation. This feature allows it to be used in mathematical equations, scientific notations, and chemical formulas where the use of subscript letters is essential for clear communication. In mathematical contexts, U+1D65 is employed to differentiate between similar-looking uppercase and lowercase letters when they represent distinct variables or constants. It helps avoid confusion in complex equations or expressions. In linguistic terms, this character does not serve a unique purpose as it is only the subscript version of the letter 'v'. U+1D65 is rarely used in everyday digital communication due to the limited number of applications requiring subscript letters. However, its significance lies in its potential usage across various technical domains and specialized areas where precise communication is vital.

How to type the symbol on Windows

Hold Alt and type 7525 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+1D65. 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+1D65 to binary: 00011101 01100101. 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 10110101 10100101
