Today's students may not even know that the
alphabets of Hindi language are scientific. Each letter of the alphabet is
logical and placed sequentially with precise calculations. Such a scientific
view is not ingrained in the alphabet of any other foreign languages. E.g. See:
*क ख ग घ ઙ* - This group of five is
called *kanthavya* because the sound comes out of the throat while pronouncing
this. Try pronouncing.
*च छ ज ज ઞ* - These five are called
*palate* because the tongue will feel palate while pronouncing this. Try
pronouncing.
*ट ठड ઢ ण* - These five are called *Murdhanya* because
while pronouncing this the tongue will feel Murdhanya. Try pronouncing.
*त थ द ध न* - This group of five is called *Dantavya* because the
tongue touches the teeth while pronouncing this. Give it a try
*प फ ब ठम* - This group of five is called *Aushthavya* because both
the lips meet to pronounce this. Give it a try
Any other language in the world has such a
scientific approach? We need pride for our Indian language but at the same time
let us know why and let the world know.
