Description

U+1543, the CANADIAN SYLLABICS R-CREE RE character, is a significant figure within digital text as part of the Unicode standard. This character serves an important role in representing a specific phoneme in the Canadian Syllabics writing system, specifically for the R-CREE dialect. The Canadian Syllabics script is primarily used by Indigenous communities across Canada and forms an integral part of their linguistic heritage. Each unique character within this system represents a different syllable or sound, allowing for the accurate transcription and translation of words, phrases, and texts in these languages. In the case of U+1543, its primary usage is to denote a specific syllable when used in the context of R-CREE dialects. Its inclusion within the Unicode standard reflects the importance placed on preserving and promoting linguistic diversity, particularly for Indigenous communities across the globe.

How to type the symbol on Windows

Hold Alt and type 5443 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+1543. 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+1543 to binary: 00010101 01000011. 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 10000011
