Description

The Unicode character U+0B97 represents the Cyrillic letter "Ye" (Й), which is primarily used in the Russian language. This letter holds a significant role in digital text, as it helps maintain the linguistic integrity of Russian documents and supports communication in the Russian language across various platforms and applications. The Cyrillic script, including the letter "Ye," has a rich history dating back to the 9th century and is widely used in regions where Russian is spoken, such as Russia, Belarus, Kazakhstan, and Kyrgyzstan. U+0B97 plays an essential part in preserving the cultural identity of these communities by enabling accurate representation of their language in digital format. Its correct use contributes to the global understanding and appreciation of diverse linguistic and cultural contexts.

How to type the symbol on Windows

Hold Alt and type 2967 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+0B97. 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+0B97 to binary: 00001011 10010111. 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 10101110 10010111
