Description

The Unicode character U+1D35, known as the "MODIFIER LETTER CAPITAL I" (Ⅱ), serves a specialized role in digital text. It is classified under the "Letter-like Symbols" category in Unicode, which encompasses characters that function similarly to letters but do not represent any specific language. The MODIFIER LETTER CAPITAL I is designed to be used with other characters or symbols as a modifier, usually to indicate a change in the pronunciation or tone of the base character it accompanies. In this capacity, it has been utilized predominantly within International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA) transcriptions and similar phonetic notation systems, where its use assists readers in understanding the intended pronunciation of words and phrases. Though it may not be widely used in everyday text, the MODIFIER LETTER CAPITAL I plays an important role in specialized fields such as linguistics, phonetics, and translation, ensuring accurate communication of spoken language through written form.

How to type the symbol on Windows

Hold Alt and type 7477 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+1D35. 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+1D35 to binary: 00011101 00110101. 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 10110100 10110101
