How to Use

Tips & Shortcuts

01
Inherent Vowel

Every consonant carries an inherent /a/ vowel. Typing p alone produces pa. No need to add a vowel after every consonant.

02
Cluster Breaking

Use Insert ZWNJ between two consonants to suppress the inherent vowel and form a consonant cluster — e.g. p + ZWNJ + r = /pr/.

03
Loanword Keys

The gold-bordered keys v, f, z are for borrowed vocabulary from Bengali, Hindi, and English. Use them only for loanwords.
