The best waty to learn Sinhala characters is " Speaking Sinhala "
at first. Then you shall ge to know Sinhala characters naturally. Since
Sinhala characters are the same " syllabic character " as Japanese
characters. Moreover , Sinhala is something in common with Japanese. It
is easy to memorize to Japanese people.
I recommend you to write a Japanese word in the Sinhala character as a
starter. Because this is the method used by the Sinhalese live in Japan.
He / she who live in Japan may write Japanese in Sinhala characters to
remember Japanese words.
For example, it is the agreeable way of writing
it to be
"ka-ma-wa-na-i" , means "it does not matter." It must be written originally as
.in Sinhala. If you find that these are almost same lines of characters
? By this way, if you write Japanese words in Sinhala characters , you
can understand Sinhala characters easily.
. Or If you want to write Sinhala letters on your computer. ,it is recuested to instool Sinhala font into the font group of your OS . The "Sinhala font kaputa " can be downed for free from news papers sites of Divaina or .Lankadeepa.
