Ah, different language, same script. TIL.
- thanksgiving 11y agoThere is Ranjana https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ranjana_alphabet https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ranjana_alphabet and Devnagari https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Devanagari https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Devanagari From what I understand, language and alphabets are related but not the same. For example, you can write in Japanese with roman alphabets https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Romanization_of_Japanese https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Romanization_of_Japanese Thus, it is possible to write in Newari (also known as Nepal Bhasa which literally translates to Nepal Language) in devnagari as well as ranjana. I cannot read or write in Ranjana. I can read or write Devnagari.
