In every case, a consonant-Pulli mark combinant behaves the same way as a consonant-vowel combinant when you use the arrow, Backspace and Delete keys. However, because this keyboard acts in a similar way to a typewriter, it is possible to type a preceding vowel diacritic followed by a consonant and the Pulli mark, or even a standalone vowel followed by the Pulli mark, producing odd combinations such as மெ் or அ். Any vowel diacritic that is typed immediately after typing the Pulli mark will not be combined with the consonant. Long vowel characters are typed either by a combination of the basic vowel key, or by pressing the vowel key twice.īecause the consonants contain the implicit vowel அ, to produce a pure consonant it is necessary to add the Pulli mark ் by typing a semicolon immediately after the consonant. The first vowel அ is implicit in the consonants, so typing this vowel after a consonant will display this as a standalone vowel, and not combine it with the consonant. The vowel diacritics பெ ( n), பே ( N) and பை ( i) will not be displayed until a consonant is typed (in the preceding examples the consonant ப is shown). When the vowel component appears above, below or to the right of a consonant, it should be typed after the consonant. When a vowel or part of a vowel appears before a consonant, it should be typed first. In general, characters should be entered with this keyboard in the same order as they would be written on paper. This is the case whether the vowel component appears to the left or right of, above or below the consonant. Moving the cursor to the left of a combinant character and pressing Delete will erase the whole character, but if you move the cursor to the right of a combinant and press Backspace, only the vowel component will be erased. This means that while two (or more) keystrokes are required to display most consonant-vowel combinants, when you use the arrow keys to move the cursor through the text, only a single keystroke is needed to move past each character. The vowel ஔ is typed using a combination of keystrokes.Īlthough Tamil characters are typed using separate keys for consonants and diacritics, the characters that appear on screen will be combinants, which the computer sees as a single character.
