Description

U+0E73 is a character code point within the Thai script block of Unicode. It represents the consonant "ร" (pronounced as /r/ in the International Phonetic Alphabet), which is one of the 44 consonants in the Thai alphabet. The character is commonly used in digital text to represent this specific consonant, as well as part of syllables and words within the Thai language. In a linguistic context, U+0E73 plays a vital role in written communication in Thailand, Laos, and other regions where Thai script is utilized. As for technical context, the character follows Unicode's strict guidelines to ensure consistency and compatibility across different platforms and devices. Its usage in digital text ensures accurate representation of the Thai language in various media, such as websites, software applications, and documents.

How to type the symbol on Windows

Hold Alt and type 3699 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+0E73. 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+0E73 to binary: 00001110 01110011. 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 10111001 10110011
