The '''Devanagari''' (literally "divine urbane script") is an [[abugida]] of [[India|Indian]] origin. It is used for writing [[Sanskrit]], [[Hindi]], [[Marathi]], [[Bhojpuri]], and [[Nepali language|Nepali]]. The alphabet is distinguished by a horizontal line running across the top section of a sentence, only ending when the sentence ends or when it is separated with a comma or other punctuation. It is used to this day in [[Ayurvedic medicine]], [[Hinduism]], [[Buddhism]] and the [[Jain]] [[religion]]s.
