Text Input in Indic Languages
QWERTY keyboard for Devanagari input–Devanagari needs 52 keys (13 vowels,
34 consonants, 4 conjuncts, 1 halant)–QWERTY has 26 un-shifted keys
Leads to cognitive load on users–Complex structure of Indic scripts (G >
K)–Large number of glyphs
Need much training and practice–30-50 hours to reach 25 wpm–Slow starts–Only professional typists put in the
effort QWERTY is not suitable14
