We have clear and logical placement of the letters in the scripts. Each Isle (row) got its own identity. No-touch articulation as first row, any clear obstruction – consonants follows later. There are possibilities that some sounds are generated in-between these two stages. These are half touch tone. Y, R, L, V the one group […]

 My classroom is back from the break and everybody enjoyed the Navaratri. I would take the opportunity to show the linkage of Bharatiy linguistic with these festivals. After all everything is created from sound without any exception. Navaratri, the celebration of the feminine force/ the creative force of the nature. It is worth saying the first feminine letter in

In Indian Scripts the consonants are sufficient in the numbers to symbolize all the articulation of mouth as individual or in combination. So much concise that it can be used to write any dialect of the world with no compromise or assumption. It circumscribes all the scripts available in the world. Whereas the other scripts

 Consonants got very less shelf life. They can not stand their own without a help from vowels even for a second. Try any consonants yourselves. Hence to present that, their legs are shown broken. Broken leg consonants are like a colour without having any shade of white into it. One has to bring any consonant to a minimum unit

All Indian alphabets – Varnas are the progression of  only. Hence it has been adored by giving it first place. The maximum expulsion of it becomes  which is theoretically last letter. The 16 Vowels and 33 Consonants makes the recipe of Bharatiy Bhasha. The Vowels are my musical sixteens. They can stay in mouth for long. Try

My classroom is multi-linguistic.  It is a linguistic class of whole India, almost. The alphabetical song is loaded in their memory well by now. To show that the framework of Indian Scripts are the same, I presented mapping of few scripts in the classroom as below. Children could identify not only the Devanagari or own

The consonants of Indian scripts have been arranged in the order. They are in order of their creation in the mouth and the efforts taken. One notices five rows having five letters in each. I call them five families having five members in each row. The last one in each family is the smallest naughty

We can take a break here on the occasion of the Ganapati festival and let’s spare a session for Ganesh Chaturthi. Let’s give a wider and bigger picture to the children as a student of Bhartiy Bhasha about the 53 letters of bharat. It is a good idea to associate linguistic classroom with the culture

Bharatiy worship Sarawati for education. She got musical instrument veena in her one hand and book in other. knowledge and rythm. The rythm is perceived by the left brain and the content by right. I had heard so. I did not want student to learn by hard. And anyway this learning was just an option

My language classroom had representation from many States of India and we were talking about mother-tongue. What collaborative approach can we adoor to introduce bharatiy letters from one platform?  I had to stand on Himalayan peak to see and show the commonality of Bharatiy linguistic across so many States. Each State is too vast to compare with any other
