How does Manglish mode work?

Manglish (Malayalam-English) converts QWERTY phonetic input to Malayalam. Type "namaskaram" and the keyboard suggests "നമസ്കാരം" — press Space to insert. It handles complex consonant clusters automatically.

How do I type the special Malayalam letters like ZH (ഴ) and RR (ർ)?

In Manglish mode: "zh"→ഴ, "rr"→ർ, "nj"→ഞ. These sounds are unique to Malayalam and distinguish it from other Dravidian languages. They appear in the Special Characters panel too.

How do I type Malayalam vowel signs (matras)?

In Manglish mode, matras attach automatically: "ka"→ക, "ki"→കി, "ku"→കു, "ke"→കേ. The keyboard also shows individual vowels for direct click input.
