Indic Scripts are a family of writing systems used primarily in the Indian subcontinent. They evolved from the ancient Brahmi script and are characterized by their unique shapes and structures. These scripts are used to write several languages, including Hindi, Bengali, and Tamil, each having its own distinct style and phonetic rules.
The scripts are generally syllabic, meaning each character represents a consonant with an inherent vowel sound. Diacritics can modify these characters to change the vowel sounds. This system allows for a rich representation of sounds, making it suitable for the diverse languages of the region.
