Previously, Santali had been written with the [[Santali Latin alphabet|Latin script]]. However, Santali is not an [[Indo-Aryan languages|Indo-Aryan]] language and Indic scripts did not have letters for all of Santali's [[phonemes]], especially its [[stop consonant]]s and [[vowels]], which made writing the language accurately in an unmodified Indic script difficult.
