Study Notes
The Writing System of Hindi
Hindi, an Indo-Aryan language spoken by over 530 million people worldwide, has a unique and rich writing system. Let's delve into the history, structure, and nuances of this system to better understand its significance.
Devanāgarī Script
Hindi primarily uses the Devanāgarī script, which originated in ancient India around the 6th century CE. This script is a member of the Brahmic script family, which also includes Bengali, Gujarati, and Marathi scripts. Devanāgarī is a highly structured script with a clear distinction between vowels and consonants. It is a abugida script, meaning that each character is a base consonant with an inherent vowel, and vowels are added as diacritic marks to modify the inherent vowel.
Consonant-Vowel Order
Hindi writing follows a consonant-vowel order, which means that consonants are written first, followed by vowels. This order is different from the English alphabet where vowels come before consonants. For example, the word "pataka" (rocket) in Hindi is written as पतक and consists of the consonants प (pa) and त (ta) followed by the vowel क (ka).
Diacritic Marks
Hindi uses a variety of diacritic marks, or vyanjana, to modify consonants and vowels to form a complete word. These diacritics indicate long and short vowels, nasalization, and other phonetic features. For instance, the word "pūr" (village) in Hindi is written as पुर, which consists of the consonant प (pa) with a diacritic mark to denote a long vowel.
Numerals and Punctuation
Hindi uses the Arabic numerals for counting and numbers, but also has its own set of traditional numerals that are used in written forms of Hindu scriptures and for artistic purposes. Hindi also uses its own set of punctuation marks, which include the full stop (।), comma (,), and question mark (?), among others.
Regional Variations
Though Hindi primarily uses Devanāgarī script, there are some regional variations in the script and its usage. For instance, in the western states of India, such as Maharashtra and Gujarat, Hindi is written in the Devanāgarī script alongside the local scripts of Marathi and Gujarati, respectively. In the neighboring country of Nepal, the Newari script is used for writing Hindi.
Digital Hindi
With the advent of technology, the Hindi writing system has been adapted for digital contexts. The standard for Hindi Unicode is UCS-2 and ISO 10646. Hindi texts can be displayed and edited on computers and mobile devices using a variety of tools, including popular applications like Google Input Tools, Microsoft Input Method Editor, and Gboard.
