Description

Unicode character U+0C71 (CHARACTER 0C71) is a part of the Ethiopic Extended character set. This character set comprises additional letters that extend the Ethiopic script, which is used primarily to write Amharic, the official language of Ethiopia and Eritrea. The Ethiopic script is also used for other Semitic languages such as Tigrinya, Tigre, and Ge'ez. U+0C71 is a consonant in this script and represents the sound /dʒ/. Its typical usage in digital text involves representing words or phrases in these languages where it appears as an essential part of the Ethiopic alphabet, just like any other character would in its respective script. There isn't a notable cultural, linguistic, or technical context for this character beyond its role within the Ethiopic Extended script and its use in written Amharic, Tigrinya, Tigre, and Ge'ez languages.

How to type the symbol on Windows

Hold Alt and type 3185 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+0C71. 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+0C71 to binary: 00001100 01110001. 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 10110001 10110001
