Malayalam Script

Okay, kiddo, have you ever seen the written language of people from Kerala in India? That's called Malayalam script. It looks like a bunch of squiggly lines to you, but it's actually a way for people to write down their thoughts, feelings, ideas and stories.

Each squiggly line represents a different sound in the Malayalam language. Just like how we use different letters to make words in English, they use different squiggly lines to make words in Malayalam.

When someone writes in Malayalam script, they start at the top left corner of the page and write to the right. Then, when they get to the end of the line, they go down to the next line and continue writing from left to right again.

People who grow up speaking Malayalam learn how to read and write in this script, so they can communicate with others who speak the same language. It might seem tricky at first, but with practice, they get really good at writing in Malayalam script.
