The earliest known inscription in the Oriya language, in the Kalinga script, dates from 1051. The curved appearance of the Oriya script is a result of the practice of writing on palm leaves, which have a tendency to tear if you use too many straight lines. Notable features Type of writing system: syllabic alphabet in which all consonants have an inherent vowel. Diacritics, which can appear above, below, before or after the consonant they belong to, are used to change the inherent vowel. When they appear the the beginning of a syllable, vowels are written as independent letters. When certain consonants occur together, special conjunct symbols are used which combine the essential parts of each letter.

    Direction of writing: left to right in horizontal lines. Used to write: Oriya ( ), an Indo-Aryan language spoken by about 31 million people mainly in the Indian state of

    Orissa, and also in West Bengal, Jharkhand, and Gujarat. Oriya is closely related to Bengali and Assamese. Also used to write a number of the other languages spoken in Orissa and Sanskrit. Oriya alphabet Vowels and vowel diacritics with k
