<div class=Section1> | ||
<p>This Gondi (Devanagari) Keyman keyboard has been designed for use on | ||
physical keyboards (laptops, etc.) as well as hand-held touch devices (such as | ||
smart phones, tablets, etc.) for the Gondi language spoken in the districts of | ||
Yavatmal, Chandrapur, Gadchiroli and Aheri of Maharashtra State in central India.</p> | ||
|
||
<h2>Touch Keyboard layout</h2> | ||
|
||
<h3>Default Layer</h3> | ||
|
||
<p>All Gondi words can be typed on the default layer (without the need for invoking | ||
Shift).</p> | ||
|
||
<p><img width=625 height=238 id="_x0000_i1025" | ||
src="gondi_dev.touch_default.png"></p> | ||
|
||
<h3>Shift Layer</h3> | ||
|
||
<p>The Shift layer contains Hindi and Marathi-specific characters like<span lang=HI | ||
style='font-family:"Annapurna SIL";mso-ascii-font-family:"Annapurna SIL";mso-bidi-language: | ||
TE'> ख घ झ छ </span>which are not required for Gondi, but could be useful to | ||
type borrowed Hindi and Marathi language words.</p> | ||
|
||
<p><img width=625 height=238 id="_x0000_i1026" | ||
src="gondi_dev.touch_shift.png"></p> | ||
|
||
<h3>Numeric Layer</h3> | ||
|
||
<p>The Numeric <span style='color:blue'>123</span> layer contains the full | ||
range of Arabic digits, Devanagari digits (accessible through a long-press) and | ||
other important symbols and lesser used punctuation characters.</p> | ||
|
||
<p><img width=619 height=236 id="_x0000_i1027" | ||
src="gondi_dev.touch_numeric.png"></p> | ||
|
||
<p>The touch layout has some additional functionality of providing short-cuts | ||
for commonly used combinations of consonant clusters. For example, holding (long | ||
press) the <span lang=HI style='font-family:"Annapurna SIL";mso-ascii-font-family:"Annapurna SIL"; | ||
color:blue;mso-bidi-language:HI'>ज</span><span lang=HI style='font-family:"Annapurna SIL"; | ||
mso-ascii-font-family:"Annapurna SIL";mso-bidi-language:HI'> </span>character key will | ||
show various commonly used Gondi combinations: <span lang=HI style='font-family: | ||
"Annapurna SIL";mso-ascii-font-family:"Annapurna SIL";mso-bidi-language:HI'>ज़ ज्क ज्त ज्न ज्र | ||
</span></p> | ||
|
||
<p><img width=350 height=140 id="_x0000_i1032" | ||
src="gondi_dev.touch_j_longpress.png"></p> | ||
|
||
<p>Similarly, holding (long-press) the <span lang=HI style='font-family:"Annapurna SIL";mso-ascii-font-family:"Annapurna SIL"; | ||
color:blue;mso-bidi-language:HI'>स</span> character key will show common combinations for that letter:</p> | ||
|
||
<p><img width=530 height=210 id="_x0000_i1031" | ||
src="gondi_dev.touch_s_longpress.png"></p> | ||
|
||
<p>Although the vowel matra forms are not displayed, the keyboard will | ||
automatically put the diacritic form on a preceding consonant. So, tapping <span | ||
lang=HI style='font-family:"Annapurna SIL";mso-ascii-font-family:"Annapurna SIL";color:blue; | ||
mso-bidi-language:HI'>क ओ</span><span lang=HI style='font-family:"Annapurna SIL"; | ||
mso-ascii-font-family:"Annapurna SIL";mso-bidi-language:HI'> </span>will produce the | ||
syllable <span lang=HI style='font-family:"Annapurna SIL";mso-ascii-font-family:"Annapurna SIL"; | ||
mso-bidi-language:HI'>को </span>and tapping<span lang=HI style='font-family: | ||
"Annapurna SIL";mso-ascii-font-family:"Annapurna SIL";mso-bidi-language:HI'> <span | ||
style='color:blue'>इ त ् त ए क ए</span> </span>will produce the word <span | ||
lang=HI style='font-family:"Annapurna SIL";mso-ascii-font-family:"Annapurna SIL";mso-bidi-language: | ||
TE'>इत्तेके </span>(<i>itteke</i>).</p> | ||
|
||
<p><img width=701 height=267 id="_x0000_i1033" | ||
src="gondi_dev.touch_itteke_how_to.png"></p> | ||
|
||
<p style='margin-left:36.0pt;text-indent:36.0pt'><span style='font-family:"Annapurna SIL"; | ||
mso-ascii-font-family:"Annapurna SIL";mso-bidi-language:HI'><img width=381 height=61 | ||
id="_x0000_i1028" src="gondi_dev.touch_itteke_example.png"><span | ||
style='mso-spacerun:yes'> </span></span><span style='font-size:18.0pt; | ||
font-family:"Annapurna SIL";mso-ascii-font-family:"Annapurna SIL";mso-bidi-language:HI'>= <span | ||
lang=HI>इत्तेके</span></span></p> | ||
|
||
|
||
<p>Finally, holding (long press) the <b><span style='color:blue'>.</span></b> (full-stop or period) key provides other Roman and Devanagari punctuation marks:</p> | ||
|
||
<p><img width=450 height=250 | ||
src="gondi_dev.touch_period_longpress.png"></p> | ||
|
||
<h2>Physical Keyboard Layout</h2> | ||
|
||
<p>The physical keyboard (for use on desktop computers) is rather different to | ||
the touch layout, and follows the standard <b>WinScript</b> keyboard layout | ||
followed by NLCI’s range of keyboards. With a few exceptions, these work | ||
more-or-less phonetically, so kyping <b><span style='color:blue'>k</span></b> | ||
gives <span lang=HI style='font-family:"Annapurna SIL";mso-ascii-font-family:"Annapurna SIL"; | ||
mso-bidi-language:HI'>क</span>, and typing <b><span style='color:blue'>a</span></b> | ||
gives <span lang=HI style='font-family:"Annapurna SIL";mso-ascii-font-family:"Annapurna SIL"; | ||
mso-bidi-language:HI'>अ</span>, and so on. The <b><span style='color:blue'>x</span></b> | ||
key is used for the virama (vowel-killer, or consonant joiner), so typing <b><span | ||
style='color:blue'>k x</span></b> gives <span lang=HI style='font-family:"Annapurna SIL"; | ||
mso-ascii-font-family:"Annapurna SIL";mso-bidi-language:HI'>क्</span> and typing <b><span | ||
style='color:blue'>k x k</span></b> gives <span lang=HI style='font-family: | ||
"Annapurna SIL";mso-ascii-font-family:"Annapurna SIL";mso-bidi-language:HI'>क्क</span>. </p> | ||
|
||
<h3>Default layer:</h3> | ||
|
||
<p><img width=720 height=243 id="_x0000_i1030" | ||
src="gondi_dev.keyboard_layout_default.png"></p> | ||
|
||
<h3>With Shift depressed:</h3> | ||
|
||
<p><img width=720 height=243 id="_x0000_i1029" | ||
src="gondi_dev.keyboard_layout_shift.png"></p> | ||
|
||
<p>It is sometimes necessary in the Gondi language to use a halant | ||
part way through a word, (for example, <span lang=HI style='font-family:"Annapurna SIL"; | ||
mso-hansi-font-family:"Times New Roman";mso-bidi-language:HI'>वेय्लो<span | ||
style='color:red'>क्</span>नल</span>) especially on a suffix boundary. In order | ||
to do this, one must press the <b><span style='color:blue'>x</span></b> key <i>twice</i> | ||
(to add the Zero-Width Non Joiner U+200C). So, for the previous example word, | ||
typing <b><span style='color:blue'>v e y x l o k</span> <span style='color: | ||
red'>x x </span> <span style='color:blue'>n l</span></b> gives <span lang=HI | ||
style='font-family:"Annapurna SIL";mso-ascii-font-family:"Annapurna SIL";mso-bidi-language: | ||
TE'>वेय्लोक्नल</span><span style='font-family:"Annapurna SIL";mso-ascii-font-family: | ||
"Annapurna SIL";mso-bidi-language:HI'>.</span> </p> | ||
|

<p>Gondi tends to use the regular digits 0-9, but if the Devanagari digits are required, these can be typed by pressing the <span style='color:blue'>`</span> key (back-tick or tilde ~ key to the left of digit 1) prior to the digit. So pressing <b><span style='color:blue'>`1</span></b> would give १ and <b><span style='color:blue'>`2</span></b> would give २ and so on.</p> | ||
|
||
<p>The underscore key _ (shift+hyphen) is used to produce ॡ so if an underscore is required, then press the hyphen (or dash) key twice: <b><span style='color:blue'>- -</span></b> produces _</p> | ||
