Unicode Standard

Edit

The Unicode Standard is a universal character encoding standard that defines a coded representation for the written characters and symbols used in digital text processing across different writing systems and languages. It assigns unique numeric values, known as code points, to characters and specifies the rules and properties required for their consistent representation, interchange, and processing in computer systems [1]. The standard includes character encoding principles, character semantics, properties, and conformance requirements that distinguish abstract characters from their encoded representations and provide a framework for interoperable text representation [1][2]. Within linguistics and language studies, the Unicode Standard functions as a formal system for representing linguistic writing units and textual symbols in digital environments, while remaining distinct from orthographic systems, writing systems, and individual character sets that define or organize particular languages [1].
