This blog post is an evaluation of the current usage of Roman script in place of Devanagari within Hindi spaces. It focuses on the sound system of Hindi and how it cannot be accurately represented in Roman script, however Dean also recognizes the ease of using Roman script especially when using technology that does not support the usage of Devanagari. Dean also notes that it is still important to use the traditional Devanagari script whenever it is possible, as it is a central part of the language and important in communicating the correct sounds and meanings within the language. This blog post would be useful to any Hindi instructor, and it would be a good lesson within the classroom setting as it would educate learners on the importance of using historically and culturally relevant scripts when they have the choice.
