Description

U+18D9, also known as CANADIAN SYLLABICS OJIBWAY N, is a character in the Unicode Standard that represents a specific sound in the Ojibway language, which is an Algonquian language spoken by the Ojibwe and other Indigenous peoples of North America. This character is primarily used in digital text to transcribe and translate literary works, linguistic research, and educational materials within the context of Ojibway culture and language preservation. The Unicode character set aims to support a wide range of languages and scripts, including those from indigenous communities, thereby promoting cultural diversity and inclusivity in written communication.

How to type the symbol on Windows

Hold Alt and type 6361 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+18D9. 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+18D9 to binary: 00011000 11011001. 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 10100011 10011001
