Description

U+1574 is a Canadian Syllabics Nunavik HE character in the Unicode Standard, which serves as a critical component for representing Inuktitut languages. This typographic symbol primarily functions within digital texts to accurately depict specific phonetic and syllabic structures of these indigenous languages spoken by the Inuit people across Canada, particularly in the Nunavik region. U+1574 plays an essential role in preserving and promoting linguistic diversity and cultural heritage, as well as facilitating communication and literacy among Inuit communities. The character is part of the broader Unicode system designed to standardize text encoding and support a wide range of global languages, scripts, and symbols for accurate digital representation.

How to type the symbol on Windows

Hold Alt and type 5492 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+1574. 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+1574 to binary: 00010101 01110100. 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 10010101 10110100
