((h2))My name written in Hindi((/h2))
((p id="paperbox"))
First off, it is rather jarring to note that denizens of the most diverse land on the face of the earth (that would be the United States - where everybody in the Bay Area knows how to use chop-sticks and there are more Indian restaurants than stop signs) often (if not always) fail to differentiate between ((em))Hindi((/em)) (the language) and ((em))Hindu((/em)) (somebody whose religion is Hinduism)! My mother-tongue is Hindi. I am a Hindu. There. I feel better.
((/p))
((p id="paperbox"))
I'm exaggerating: no need to blame the entire country - I've only seen this lack of understanding on ((a href="http://www.slashdot.org"))Slashdot((/a)) a dozen times, and Slashdot is a ((em))very((/em)) weird phenomenon, although you get used to it.
((/p))
((p id="paperbox"))
If I were to write my name in Hindi (using the Devnagri script), it would look as follows:
((/p))
((p style="text-align: center;"))
((img src="/miscellaneous/images/devnagri.jpg" alt="Amit Singh: Name in Devnagri Script" style="border: 1px solid rgb(45%,45%,65%);" /))
((/p))
((p id="paperbox"))
It is possible to "write" Hindi (and Tamil, Telugu, Chinese and many, many other languages) using T((sub))E((/sub))X. A good page on T((sub))E((/sub))X resources is the ((a href="http://www.tug.org"))TUG((/a)) home page. Here is the ((a href="name.dn"))input file((/a)) (with instructions) for creating the Hindi representation of my name. Please feel free to change it to write your own name in Hindi, if you want.
