Description

The Unicode character U+1653, known as CANADIAN SYLLABICS CARRIER SA, is a crucial component in the representation of the Canadian Aboriginal Syllabics writing system. This character serves as a carrier for syllables, connecting and facilitating the combination of individual syllable characters to form words. It plays an essential role in digital text by enabling users to create and communicate effectively within this unique linguistic context. As part of the Canadian Aboriginal Syllabics block (U+1650-U+167F), U+1653 contributes to the preservation and promotion of Indigenous languages, fostering cultural understanding and pride among native communities in Canada. The character is vital for both linguistic purposes and digital communication within these communities, as it helps maintain the integrity and readability of text written in Canadian Aboriginal Syllabics script.

How to type the symbol on Windows

Hold Alt and type 5715 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+1653. 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+1653 to binary: 00010110 01010011. 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 10010011
