That is an incomplete question.

First for java a string contains a character set. So whatever that character set does is what java does.

From the other response the relevant part then is the following

"A String represents a string in the UTF-16 format in which supplementary characters are represented by surrogate pairs"


You would need to look up 'surrogate pairs' to understand that.

In practical business programming however that is not generally relevant. I know for example that Egyptian hieroglyphics are in the extended set. Certainly Americas, Europe, most of Asia is in the normal set. Not sure about Japanese (etc) like Kanji might or might not be. But supporting those requires other business changes also.

In practical business programming, with anything except English you still must be careful how you store (database) the text. A 'varchar' does represent a character set and you better understand the implications of that before making a decision on what to use. Just a general easy decision to make everything UTF in a database is not necessarily a good idea and there can be unexpected implications of making that decision.
