Beginner's Guide

Nepali Typing (नेपाली लेखन)

We recommend Google Input Tools Chrome extension for Nepali unicode typing. Install the Extension, go to Extension Options and choose 'ने Nepali/ नेपाली(रोमानाइज्ड)' as the input tools.

We also recommend to learn about the use of Zero-width non-joiner (zwnj) and Zero-width joiner (zwj) for correct formatting of some Nepali words (eg श्रीमान्‌को vs श्रीमान्को).

There are some frequent use of Avagraha symbol ऽ in the poem. One can simply copy and paste this symbol.

Getting correct text is the primary purpose of the proofreading, typography and formatting are the secondary. Do not try to correct the spelling (हिज्जे) of the words printed in the book. We mostly aim to write the word the same way it is printed.
