Description

The Unicode character U+181A (CHARACTER 181A) holds a unique position within the realm of typography and digital text. As a non-spacing combining character, it is typically employed to modify or adjust surrounding characters, rather than standing alone. In this capacity, CHARACTER 181A often serves as a diacritical mark or modifier, lending nuance and depth to linguistic expression. Its cultural significance is equally noteworthy, given that it may be employed across various languages and scripts to denote distinct sounds or phonetic distinctions. The precise function of CHARACTER 181A varies widely depending on the language and context in which it appears, highlighting the rich diversity and adaptability of Unicode's character set. In technical terms, CHARACTER 181A is a valuable tool for preserving and encoding linguistic complexity, ensuring accurate representation across digital platforms and applications.

How to type the symbol on Windows

Hold Alt and type 6170 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+181A. 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+181A to binary: 00011000 00011010. 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 10100000 10011010
