Punctuation Marks:

The English symbols [ ] { } ( ) - + * / = ; : . , " ? ! % \ ~ _ @ convert to the same symbols in Oriya also.

Quotation Marks:

` ' characters are converted to single smart quotes (‘ ’) characters. We can get double smart quotes (“ ”) by using them twice.

When a consonant character is followed by a vowel character, it results in a live consonant.

ka kA ki kI ku kU kRu kRU ke kai ko kau kaM kaH କ କା କି କୀ କୁ କୂ କୃ କୠ କେ କୈ କୋ କୌ କଂ କଃ

Note: In the Oriya phonetic keyboard, an implicit 'a' matra is assumed for the last consonant of the word.

k,c,T,t,p --> ka,ca,Ta,ta,pa --> କ,ଚ,ଟ,ତ,ପ

When two or more consecutive consonants appear in the input, they make a conjunct. The first consonant takes the full form and the following consonants become half forms.

sAPTwEr=ସାଫ୍ଟ୍ୱେର

‘ହ’ consonant can be written in two ways; 'h' and '~h'. If you want to apply a ‘ହ’ half consonant to consonants such as 'k', 'g', 't', 'd', etc, you have to use '~h' instead of of 'h'.

bakkiMg~hAm=ବକ୍କିଂଗ୍ହାମ

ZWJ, ZWNJ:

^=ZWJ (zero width joiner)

^^=ZWNJ (zero width non joiner)

If a dead consonant (consonant with halant symbol) is required in the middle of a word, the ZWJ or ZWNJ character should be used after the consonant.

rAj^kumAr=ରାଜ୍‍କୁମାର

If two English characters are making one Oriya vowel (ex: ai, ou), then, ZWJ or ZWNJ character can be used to separate them into different vowels.

iMDiYa^inPo=ଇଂଡିଯ‍ଇନ୍ଫୋ
