First and foremost - huge THANK YOU! to creators of this fine site!

Using you site I was able to successfully learn the Sinhala writing system, now I'm preparing myself for a Nepal trip - I'm studying Devanagari.

I think that the Devanagari page could|should be used as a reference for all Brahmi-descendant writing systems.

Namely:
1) Sinhala page should mention the "virama" (the "hal kirima" in Sinhala)
2) an example of virama usage should be there (there are two different ways to mark a virama depending on the syllable glyph shape)
3) the diacritical marks could be shown in color

Once again - THANK YOU very much for the "Omniglot" site!
