Malayalam Script is a writing system used for the Malayalam language, primarily spoken in the Indian state of Kerala. It is an abugida, meaning each character represents a consonant with an inherent vowel sound, which can be modified with diacritics to change the vowel. The script has a rounded appearance, making it visually distinct from other Indian scripts. Developed from the ancient Brahmi script, Malayalam script has evolved over centuries. It consists of 54 letters, including vowels and consonants, and is known for its complex ligatures. The script is used in literature, education, and daily communication among Malayalam speakers.
