About the Marathi keyboard
Marathi is written in Devanagari (Balbodh style). It shares the script with Hindi and Nepali but uses the letter ळ frequently and has its own spelling conventions.
InScript: InScript Devanagari layout used for Marathi (Windows "Marathi"): vowel keys give matras, Shift gives full vowels, ळ is Shift+L-row key.
Phonetic typing: Type Marathi in English letters: namaskaar → नमस्कार. Capital L gives ळ, capital letters give retroflex consonants.

Tips for typing Marathi
Use L for ळ in words like बाळ, कळ.
Anusvara ं is typed with M.
ॲ (for English "a" sounds as in ॲप) is in the quick buttons.
End sentences with . — modern Marathi uses the period, not ।.
Frequently asked questions
How do I type Marathi on an English keyboard?
Choose Phonetic typing and write the word by sound. Capitals give retroflex letters (T ट, D ड, N ण, L ळ, Sh ष). Example: maraaThii → मराठी.
How do I type ळ?
In phonetic mode type capital L: maLaa → मळा. On InScript it is on Shift of the key left of the period.
How do I type ज्ञ (dnya)?
Type GY or jny in phonetic mode, or click the ज्ञ button. On InScript it is Shift+5.
Is Marathi typed the same as Hindi?
Both use Devanagari and InScript, so the keyboard is the same. Marathi uses ळ and ॲ more often, and the eyelash र (ऱ) in some words.
