A.
Supplementary Multilingual Plane
The Supplementary Multilingual Plane is a range of Unicode code points (Plane 1) that contains historic scripts, musical notation, and various specialized characters beyond the Basic Multilingual Plane.
-
B.
Supplementary Ideographic Plane
The Supplementary Ideographic Plane is a Unicode plane that contains additional CJK (Chinese, Japanese, and Korean) ideographic characters beyond those in the Basic Multilingual Plane.
-
C.
Unicode
Unicode is a universal character encoding standard that assigns unique code points to virtually all written scripts, symbols, and emojis used in modern computing.
-
D.
Unicode Character Database
The Unicode Character Database is a comprehensive collection of machine-readable data files that define the properties, classifications, and behaviors of every character encoded in the Unicode Standard.
-
E.
Tertiary Ideographic Plane
The Tertiary Ideographic Plane is a Unicode plane reserved for future encoding of additional CJK (Chinese, Japanese, and Korean) ideographic characters beyond those in the existing ideographic planes.
- F. None of above. chosen
- G. Unsure - the case is ambiguous/there is not enough information to decide.

How these facts were elicited
The pipeline generated the facts above by prompting gpt-5.1 with this entity's name + description and the instruction below.
Instruction
You are a knowledge base construction expert. Given a subject entity and a description of it, return factual statements that you know for the subject as a JSON list of dictionaries(triples), where keys must be "subject", "predicate" and "object". The number of facts may be very high, between 25 to 50 or more, for very popular subjects. For less popular subjects, the number of facts can be very low, like 5 or 10. # Requirements - If you don't know the subject at all, return an empty list. - If the subject is not a named entity, return an empty list. - Include at least one triple where predicate is "instanceOf". - Do not get too wordy. - Separate several objects into multiple triples with one object.
Input
Subject: Unicode supplementary planes Description of subject: Unicode supplementary planes are additional ranges of code points beyond the Basic Multilingual Plane that encode historic scripts, symbols, emojis, and private-use characters.
