Devanagari Braille

Similar braille conventions are used for three languages of India and Nepal that in print are written in Devanagari script: Hindi, Marathi, and Nepali.

There are apparently some differences between the Nepali braille alphabet of India and that of Nepal.

(When writing in Hindi, the halant is generally omitted at the end of a word, following the convention in print.)

In this environment the a must be written to indicate that it exists, as otherwise the subsequent vowel will be read as following the consonant immediately.

The asterisk in Nepal, ⠐⠔, differs from the ⠔⠔ used in India, unless this is a copy error in UNESCO (2013).

Single quotation marks and additional brackets are noted for Nepal but not for India: These differ from the same punctuation in Bangladesh.
