北 X5317 is Unicode character number 21271 , KanjiLiberal.
In Japanese, 北 can be pronounced as kita and mean North.
KanjiLiberal 北 (X5317) is easy to confuse with
KanjiConfudal 北 XF963; attempts to access 北 redirect here.
Encoding
Character 北 (北, X5317) can be confused with other characters (北, XF963), that use similar pictures. Some software silently replace (北, XF963) to (北, X5317); no warning appears at the search or the copypast. This may cause mistakes, confusions: the two characters are sometimes treated as the same. To avoid confusions, some programming is necessary.
Encoding of character 北 and its analogies can be revealed with the PHP program ud.t .
For the execution, file uni.t also may be required.
then, command
php ud.t F963 5317 5357 897F 6771
returns the following output:
K= 6
F963 63843 北 北
Unicode character number 63843 id est, XF963
Picture: 北 ; uses 3 bytes. These bytes are:
XEF XA5 XA3 in the hexadecimal representation and
239 165 163 in the decimal representation
5317 21271 北 北
Unicode character number 21271 id est, X5317
Picture: 北 ; uses 3 bytes. These bytes are:
XE5 X8C X97 in the hexadecimal representation and
229 140 151 in the decimal representation
5357 21335 南 南
Unicode character number 21335 id est, X5357
Picture: 南 ; uses 3 bytes. These bytes are:
XE5 X8D X97 in the hexadecimal representation and
229 141 151 in the decimal representation
897F 35199 西 西
Unicode character number 35199 id est, X897F
Picture: 西 ; uses 3 bytes. These bytes are:
XE8 XA5 XBF in the hexadecimal representation and
232 165 191 in the decimal representation
6771 26481 東 東
Unicode character number 26481 id est, X6771
Picture: 東 ; uses 3 bytes. These bytes are:
XE6 X9D XB1 in the hexadecimal representation and
230 157 177 in the decimal representation
The programs mentioned are designed to handle the Japanese characters in the Utf8 endoding. The unicode characters until XFFFF are covered; they all are encoded with 3 bytes (or less). Unicode character number 194603 (北 北, X2F82B) is reported [2][3] to confuse with 北, but is not covered by the same algorithms.
Semantic
北 indicates the specific direction, North. This is shown in Fig.1 and Fig.3.
Other 3 basic directions are denoted with kanjis 西,東, 南.
Usually, at maps, 北 is at the top.
Phonetic
北 can be pronounced as "Kita", きた ; but also as "Hoku", ホク [1].
Graphic
Jisho [1] suggests the drawing of 北 shown in Fig.2.
Confusion
北 is easy to confuse with other Unicode characters. Pictures of the following characters are similar, and some silent (without any warning) redirections occurs at the search and/or copypasts:
Unicode character X2F82B 北 [3] (It takes more than 3 bytes in the Utf8 and cannot be shown at this site).
