I don't think that before the advent of the Portuguese Konkani in Goa was written in the Devnagri script, but rather (or mostly) in the Kannada script and also, if I am not mistaken, in a now obsolete "Modi" script (which was also used for the Marathi language). Perhaps Konkani scholars could elucidate us on this. > I agree that like Kemal Ataturk did > or as they did in Viet Nam, we would need our linguists to devise a sensible > alphabet (based on the Roman Script) to express exactly the pronounciation of > our words. I am totally in agreement about this.
