Gujarati script
Gujarati script is an abugida used to write the Gujarati language, primarily spoken in the Indian state of Gujarat. It evolved from the Devanagari script but has distinct characters and stylistic features. Each consonant has an inherent vowel sound, which can be changed with diacritical marks. The script is written from left to right and includes specific symbols for vowels, consonants, and nasal sounds. Its elegant, rounded letters facilitate smooth handwriting, reflecting the cultural aesthetics of the region. Gujarati script effectively captures the phonetic nuances of the language, making it both a practical and culturally significant writing system.
