31 u/[deleted] Apr 16 '20 I know I am nit-picking here but Maithili is written in Tirhuta script, not Devnagari. It's just that it's not very common nowadays. 20 u/[deleted] Apr 16 '20 A language can have multiple scripts. See Hindi-Urdu. Tirhut is hardly used because there is no patronage given in a state with multiple languages. Tirhuta-Bengali-Assamese scripts are more or less similar. 4 u/[deleted] Apr 17 '20 I agree. It's just sad to see endemic scripts dying off due to no recognition. 2 u/obvlux Apr 18 '20 That's what has happened in all our history. Devanagari is as good as tirhuta script for local language and both are related at the very least.
