Language: Bangla, Monkeytype cannot recognize characters ড়, য় #4468

How do you achieve those characters? Which keys do I press? |
|
If you use Avro, then you can change layout by pressing F12(don't press Shift+Alt messes up keyboard on windows). Then from dropdown you can select phonetic or Jatiyo. If you select jatiyo then press P/Shift+E/Shift+P, to get these letters. On phonetic you have to type phonetically in english. Like নয় is 'noy' followed by space/enter to select dropdown text. On Linux install Bangla(Bangladesh) Jatiyo Layout and with Windows key+Space switch keyboard and type P/Shift+E/Shift+P. Or the simplest solution for you, copy paste from unicode block https://symbl.cc/en/unicode/blocks/bengali/#Additional_consonants in additional consonant section. |
|
Which one is best? Which keys do i press then? Which ones are broken? |
|
Can you send screenshot of the first two option in 'Shift' mode? Thanks |
|
BTW, which app are you using? I might be able to give clearer response if I know. |
|
Thats just the MacOS layout selector |
|
Ok, the second layout is MS InScript layout. In order to get ড়,ঢ়,য়
|
|
So, for some reason calling Then, because of the way monkeytype handles input, these are split into separate elements, and then displayed separately I could add a special case to NOT normalize Bangla characters, but there still exists the issue of the separate characters. Bangla seems to be the only language (that i've encountered so far) that displays different characters (if surrounded by other characters) while not actually modifying them 
Monkeytype requires splitting characters to provide per character feedback on if the key was pressed correctly or not 
This honestly might be impossible to fix, unless there exists a font which wil not display these dotted circles: |
|
I would like to remind you that কিিি is intended rendering while ক ি ি ি ি ি is not. The reason ড় gets split might be because in previous(like 90's) version of unicode there was no ড়, ড and the fota was combined to get the letter. Subsequent application brought in the character ড়। |
|
I understand the separate rendering is not intended. I also said that there is no way around it without completely reworking the website and straight up removing one of the main features (whch is per key highlight) |
|
Actually the per key highlight works as intended and expected for other words and characters. |
|
It doesn't. When you go to zen mode and type anything, no characters get connected. |
|
Wait is zen deployed or in testing? |
|
Zen is live |
|
Interesting, it works in normal mode but not zen mode. In normal mode characters after the main letter are highlighted properly while characters before the main letter are not. Is it possible to implement this, page 70 glyph colouring? |
|
If it's not possible to fix these without breaking changes, just implement proper input normalization for ড়,ঢ় and য় , I will forgo Zen mode no problem. |
|
Nevermind, i was wrong. These characters are displayed correctly if you just switch the language to bangla.. |
|
Alright, well... going full circle, how do i type উড়ন্ত ? Which keys do i press? Because so far i can type ড় and it gets recognised |
|
উড়ন্ত |
Looks to be working correctly for me |
|
Did you use custom text mode? Custom works but not normal typing mode. |
|
Yeah i did. Interesting, let me play around. |
|
Test on Time>Bangla>120s for testing time. Restart until a word with ড়, ঢ়, য়, ঐ, ঔ comes, tell me the word. I will provide the keys than you can type it in with restart. |
|
I have the same problem, I couldn't get how you guys fixed it. |
|
I think i found a solution, ill deploy it to the live site later today - please test and let me know. |

I tested it for the letter 'য়' that works, but I will check the other characters like it and let you know. However, there is another issue that I would like to draw your attention to here. |
|
I think it is kind of working, but it detects something after the letter য়. So each time, I have to backspace before typing forward. And it seems to occur in time mode with 60s. |
|
How do you type that problematic letter? |
|
I am on ubuntu, I use the Baisakhi layout |
|
Seems like im getting a different character when pressing shift+y. Which keys is on this layout? 
|
|
য় this one, right? (i think its shift+/) |
|
So, I cant seem to reproduce the issue with this character. Does it only happen in time mode? |
Did you clear cache before opening an issue?
Is there an existing issue for this?
Does the issue happen when logged in?
Yes
Does the issue happen when logged out?
Yes
Does the issue happen in incognito mode when logged in?
Yes
Does the issue happen in incognito mode when logged out?
Yes, but sometimes it didn't

Current Behavior
Monkeytype cannot recognize the letters ড়, য় (maybe even ঢ় though I was not able to get any words that include ঢ়). I believe this happens because it uses some old encoding scheme where ড+় is used, where the correct letter would be ড়.
Expected Behavior
Monkeytype recognizes ড়, ঢ়, য়
