For yuktakshars, put the halant (্) shown in red in between the consonants.

These are all according to standard Unicode rules for digital input of Gujarati but you have to grow familiar.

Here are few examples.

For making yuktakshar, so you put a halant in between.

ક્ષ = ક + ્ + ષ

જ્ઞ = જ + ્ + ઞ

શ્ર = શ + ્ + ર

ત્ર = ત + ્ + ર

To writing “aap” you need to put “aa” first ( aa itself a vowel don’t need to put aa and then aakar matra ) then pa.

આપ = આ + પ

A typical yuktakshar usage.

અંતર્રાષ્ટ્રીય = અ + ં + ત + ર + ્ + ર + ા + ષ + ્ + ટ + ્ + ર + ી + ય

Did you know, kshya is actually only a yuktakshar, you probably did.

ક્ષત્રિય = ક + ્ + ષ + ત + ્ + ર + િ + ય

A gya is a yuktakshar too.

વૈજ્ઞાનિક = વ + ૈ + જ + ્ + ઞ + ા + ન + િ + ક

Even you can write a non dictionary word very easily.

વિશ્વામિત્ર = વ + િ + શ + ્ + વ + ા + મ + િ + ત + ્ + ર

Try them, you will soon figure out.

લક્ષ્મી = લ + ક + ્ + ષ + ્ + મ + ી

બુદ્ધિ = બ + ુ + દ + ્ + ધ + િ

દુર્યોધન = દ + ુ + ર + ્ + ય + ો + ધ + ન

ઉત્કર્ષ = ઉ + ત + ્ + ક + ર + ્ + ષ

શ્રદ્ધા = શ + ્ + ર + દ + ્ + ધ + ા

નિર્વાણ = ન + િ + ર + ્ + વ + ા + ણ

કૃષ્ણા = ક + ૃ + ષ + ્ + ણ + ા

આકર્ષણ = આ + ક + ર + ્ + ષ + ણ

Each character type, swar varna, vyanjan varna, matra, special symbols are shown in different colours in the Panini Keypad for your assistance and also learning.

પ્રાર્થના = પ + ્ + ર + ા + ર + ્ + થ + ન + ા
