Vowels: =a, =A,aa, =i, =I,ee, =u, =U,oo, =Ru, =RU, =e,E, =ai,oi, =o,O, =au,ou = ~M =M =H Consonants: =k,

Quotation Marks: ` ' characters are converted to single smart quotes ( ) characters. We can get double smart quotes ( ) by using them twice. ~ Usage: '~' character when used with other characters form a different character as shown below. Example: ~~ = ~ ~& = & ~^ = ^ ~g = ~j = ~h = When a consonant character is followed by a vowel character, it results in a live consonant. ka kA ki kI ku kU kRu kRU ke kai ko kau kaM kaH mu~M jaNe bhAratIY. . Note: In the Oriya phonetic keyboard, an implicit 'a' matra is assumed for the last consonant of the word. Example: k,c,T,t,p --> ka,ca,Ta,ta,pa -->,,,, 1

When two or more consecutive consonants appear in the input, they make a conjunct. The first consonant takes the full form and the following consonants become half forms. Example: sAPTwEr - rAjkumAr - consonant can be written in two ways; 'h' and '~h'. If you want to apply a half consonant to consonants such as 'k', 'g', 't', 'd', etc, you have to use '~h' instead of of 'h'. Example: bakkiMghAm = bakkiMg~hAm = ZWJ, ZWNJ characters: ^ = ZWJ (zero width joiner) ^^ = ZWNJ (zero width non joiner) If a dead consonant (consonant with halant symbol) is required in the middle of a word, the ZWJ or ZWNJ character should be used after the consonant. Example: rAjkumAr - rAj^kumAr - If two English characters are making one Oriya vowel (ex: ai, ou), then, ZWJ or ZWNJ character can be used to separate them into different vowels. Example: iMDiYainPo = iMDiYa^inPo = shuNibe [Hello] suprabhAta [Good Morning] subhasandhyA [Good Afternoon] subharAtra [Good Night] subidAy [Good Bye] dhanyabAda [Thanks] ApaNa kemiti aChanti [How are you] , mu~M bhala aChi, dhanyabAd [I am fine thank you] mu~M duHkhita [Sorry]
