Description

U+1560, known as CANADIAN SYLLABICS THI, is a character within the Unicode standard that holds significance in the realm of digital text. This character predominantly serves as part of the Canadian Aboriginal Syllabics block, specifically within the Cree, Inuktitut, and Ojibwe scripts. Its typical usage in digital text is to represent the phonetic sound 'th' when used in combination with other syllabic characters. This character contributes to the preservation of linguistic heritage and culture by enabling accurate representation of these languages on digital platforms. The CANADIAN SYLLABICS THI demonstrates the importance of Unicode in supporting diversity and inclusivity in language representation, facilitating communication and cultural exchange among Indigenous communities within Canada and beyond.

How to type the symbol on Windows

Hold Alt and type 5472 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+1560. 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+1560 to binary: 00010101 01100000. 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 10100000
