Description

U+1613 is a character from the Unicode standard that represents "CANADIAN SYLLABICS CARRIER YA" in digital text. This character is crucial for representing the Canadian Aboriginal syllabic writing system, which utilizes a set of phonetic symbols to transcribe spoken language into written form. In this context, the CANADIAN SYLLABICS CARRIER YA serves as a base element that carries the meaning and sound values of subsequent syllabic characters, similar to how "Y" serves as a carrier in the English alphabet. The Canadian Aboriginal syllabics writing system is culturally significant for First Nations, Inuit, and Métis communities across Canada, as it allows for the representation and preservation of Indigenous languages.

How to type the symbol on Windows

Hold Alt and type 5651 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+1613. 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+1613 to binary: 00010110 00010011. 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 10011000 10010011
