Description

U+0E3E is a character in the Unicode standard, specifically from the Thaana script block. The Thaana script is primarily used for writing the Djibouti Afar language, which is spoken mainly in Djibouti and parts of Ethiopia. Although not as widely recognized or utilized as other scripts like Arabic or Latin, U+0E3E plays a significant role within the digital text sphere, providing users with an efficient way to input and display characters from the Afar language. With the growing emphasis on preserving and promoting linguistic diversity in the digital age, U+0E3E serves as a vital element in maintaining the cultural identity and knowledge of the Afar community.

How to type the symbol on Windows

Hold Alt and type 3646 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+0E3E. 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+0E3E to binary: 00001110 00111110. 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 10111000 10111110
