Description

The Unicode character U+1649 represents the "Canadian Syllabics Carrier DZO" in digital text. This character serves as a carrier for Canadian Aboriginal syllabic letters, specifically in the Cree, Ojibwe, Inuktitut, and other related languages. The DZO character is used to combine with other syllabic characters to form unique syllables, which are essential building blocks of words in these languages. The Canadian Syllabics script has significant cultural, linguistic, and historical importance, as it enables the representation and transmission of Indigenous Canadian languages that have been spoken for centuries. In digital communications and text processing, U+1649 ensures accurate encoding and display of syllabic content in these languages while maintaining their phonological structure and readability.

How to type the symbol on Windows

Hold Alt and type 5705 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+1649. 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+1649 to binary: 00010110 01001001. 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 10011001 10001001
