Description

U+1BA3, also known as the Sundanese Consonant Sign Panyiku, is a critical character in digital text that plays an essential role in the representation of the Sundanese language. Sundanese, spoken by millions in West Java, Indonesia, is a Malayo-Polynesian language that uses the Latin script with additional diacritic signs for its orthography. The Panyiku symbol is used to represent the voiced retroflected velar plosive sound /ɡ/, which is a crucial phoneme in the Sundanese language. As a typographic expert, it is essential to recognize the significance of this character in preserving and promoting the cultural heritage of the Sundanese people. The accurate use of U+1BA3 in digital text ensures the proper transmission of linguistic information, enabling effective communication within the community while fostering greater appreciation for the rich linguistic diversity that exists globally.

How to type the symbol on Windows

Hold Alt and type 7075 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+1BA3. 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+1BA3 to binary: 00011011 10100011. 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 10101110 10100011
