MYSQL Collations [utf8_general_ci] and [utf8_unicode_ci]. What's the difference?

  • 772

I'm wondering if there any different between these tow Collations in mysql encoding charset UTF8:
utf8_general_ci and utf8_unicode_ci
They both looks the same! note: For now I'm writing in them in English only, But I'm afraid if it has a side-effect if I inserted in another language like Arabic.
