Lekhani is a phonetic Odia input layout. Lekhani draws inspiration from "Oriya phonetic typing on Ubuntu" and "Oriya - QUERTY" on Mac. It was initiated in 2011 and implemented on Mediawiki during 2012.

Features edit

  • Lekhani is a phonetic input layout, so individual key input gives Odia characters without a halanta
  • Halanta () is normally used to type conjuncts (ଯୁକ୍ତାଷର). You need to type z to get . For example type (Type z) to get କ୍ତ.
  • Most used conjuncts (e.g. ଙ୍କ, ଙ୍ଖ, ଙ୍ଗ, ମ୍ପ, ଞ୍ଜ, ମ୍ବ) could be written by joining two characters with a halanta (z is used to type halanta)

Test examples edit

Use halanta to join two characters to write conjuncts (Odia: ଯୁକ୍ତାକ୍ଷର or Juktakhyara) z

  • ସ‌ହର= s_hr
  • ସ୍ୱର୍ଣ୍ଣ = swrzNzN
  • ପ୍ରତି = p zrti
  • ପ୍ରୌଢ଼ = pzrouQ
  • କୃତ୍ୟ = kRtY
  • ଟାଇପ୍‌ର = Taipz_r
  • ର‌୍ଯାଙ୍କିଙ୍ଗ = r_ynking (underscore "_" inserts a Zero-width joiner (ZWJ) which displays the "ଯ ଫଳା" ("jo phoḷa") only. Without the use of ZWY, it display a gibberish word "ର୍ୟାଙ୍କିଙ୍ଗ".)
