I discovered my train was going to Ernakulam Town and not Ernakulam South (to be honest I'd probably done this intentionally back while booking, assuming I'd go to Munnar the next morning), and decided to take the public bus just for the experience (since it wasn't that much longer than an uber for such a distance). Man, I thought Taiwanese bus drivers showed a disregard for passenger comfort but it turns out I knew nothing. I was holding on for dear life with both hands til a seat freed up. Nonetheless it was an invigorating contrast to the Vande Bharat executive chair coach I'd arrived in (which had me thinking if I could just ride that around the whole country I'd be happy as a clam!), I daresay I ought to do it more often.
#the destinations painted on the bus were all in malayalam so i had to just ask the ticket guy sticking his head out the window#all my Hindi learning for naught down here!#i was flipping through news channels at a hotel the other night trying to guess the scripts#i can tell devanagari from kannada from bengali from malayalam but gujarati finally got me#learn something new every day

Is there a name for the continuous line on which the letters of scripts such as devanagari and similar scripts spawn from? If you know what I mean.
(If you don't: there are scripts that have a continuous line that connects all the letters and is straight.)

welp
i can confirm i can kinda write in devanagari now 👍
#the talkies tag#man that was fun#it was really cool because the idea to put the transliterated hindi right below the devanagari script popped into my head#and by golly when i say that was a great idea#surely providence lol XD but because of it i got to begin to pick up on the syllabic representations#and now i know maybeee a third to a half of hindi-devanagari syllables?#the common ones at least ^-^#i love hindi

So if you were conlanging, and your language had [w], but not [j] or [h], and you were adapting Devanagari for the orthography, would you use
य or ह to represent [w]?
#conlanging#the phonology of this has a series of retroflex consonants and Hindi is the only language I have any experience with that has those#and so combined with my love of CV and (C)V syllables it made sense to me to use Devanagari right now#I’ll probably make a script later but yknow for right now#right now I’m using the glyph for h btw bc I kind of like how it looks better

#Another musing on the status of my Hindi#This time I'm not so morbid about it though#Did you know that khadi boli used to be read in#The nastalik script rather than the devanagari script#Pre independence?#And that the idea that nastalik is for Muslims and devanagari is for Hindus#Is a complete and utter construct that had more to do with colonial forces and publishing politics#Than an inherent religion?#So what I take away from that factoid is#There is no one true pure anything and that I'm not losing Hindi#But deploying it in different ways#And that it's never too late to learn anything#And that learning can happen without worrying about whether what I'm learning#Is “pure” or not#Hindi#Writing#Internalised purity culture? But for languages?
