Gujarati Typing - A Comprehensive Guide PART 4: Handling Special Gujarati Characters and Script Rules

Special Gujarati Characters

Gujarati has unique characters that require special typing techniques:

• ઁ (Candrabindu) → Used in classical texts.
• ઃ (Visarga) → Used in Sanskrit-origin words.
• ળ (ḷa) → Used in words like પંડિત (pandit).
• ૱ (Gujarati Rupee Symbol) → Used in currency notations.

Gujarati Script Rules to Remember

• Consonants always have an inherent "a" sound unless modified.
• Halant (્) is used to remove the vowel sound from a consonant.
• Visarga (ઃ) and Anusvara (ં) are used in Sanskrit-origin words.

Following these rules ensures correct Gujarati typing.
