ZWJ, ZWNJ characters:
^ = ZWJ (zero width joiner)
^^ = ZWNJ (zero width non joiner)
^^ = ZWNJ (zero width non joiner)
In Baraha Kannada phonetic keyboard, ZWJ is used in only one case. Normally, if ‘r’ comes in the beginning of a consonant conjunct, it forms the Arkavottu(ð). But, if ZWJ character immediately follows ‘r’ then it forms a ‘ರ’ consonant.
Example:
sUrya = ಸೂರ್ಯ
ryAMk = ರ್ಯಾಂಕ್
sUr^ya = ಸೂರ್ಯ
r^yAMk = ರ್ಯಾಂಕ್
sUrya = ಸೂರ್ಯ
ryAMk = ರ್ಯಾಂಕ್
sUr^ya = ಸೂರ್ಯ
r^yAMk = ರ್ಯಾಂಕ್
If a dead consonant is required in the middle of a word, the ZWJ or ZWNJ character should be used after the consonant.
Example:
rAjkumAr = ರಾಜ್ಕುಮಾರ್
rAj^kumAr = ರಾಜ್ಕುಮಾರ್
rAj^^kumAr = ರಾಜ್ಕುಮಾರ್
rAjkumAr = ರಾಜ್ಕುಮಾರ್
rAj^kumAr = ರಾಜ್ಕುಮಾರ್
rAj^^kumAr = ರಾಜ್ಕುಮಾರ್
sAPTwEr = ಸಾಫ್ಟ್ವೇರ್
sAPT^wEr = ಸಾಫ್ಟ್ವೇರ್
sAPT^^wEr = ಸಾಫ್ಟ್ವೇರ್
sAPT^wEr = ಸಾಫ್ಟ್ವೇರ್
sAPT^^wEr = ಸಾಫ್ಟ್ವೇರ್
If two English characters are making one Kannada vowel (ex: ai, au), then, ZWJ or ZWNJ character can be used to separate them into different vowels.
Example:
iMDiyainPo = ಇಂಡಿಯೈನ್ಫೊ
iMDiya^inPo = ಇಂಡಿಯಇನ್ಫೊ
iMDiyainPo = ಇಂಡಿಯೈನ್ಫೊ
iMDiya^inPo = ಇಂಡಿಯಇನ್ಫೊ
