Sinhala (<span class="autonym">සිංහල</span>) is an Indic abugida, written
|
|
|
|
|
left-to-right. Used since c. 300 CE in Sri Lanka for the Sinhala language (15
|
|
|
|
|
million speakers), for Pali and Sanskrit. The “pure” letter set has 20
|
|
|
|
|
consonant and 20 vowel letters, and is used for the sounds of the spoken
|
|
|
|
|
Sinhala. The “mixed” letter set (18 more consonant letters) is used for
|
|
|
|
|
correct spelling, which often reflect archaic pronunciations, and for
|
|
|
|
|
non-Sinhala words and languages. Needs software support for complex text
|
|
|
|
|
layout (shaping). Read more on
