Murli Dictionary
Hindi is also shown in Latin characters, using an adapted form of ISO 15919 transliteration.
How to read the transliteration
This site uses transliteration based on ISO 15919, with a few adaptations to make reading easier: h is added after c, ś and ṣ, and i after the vowel r̥. These adaptations bring it closer to the Hunterian system used in India while retaining the distinctive marks of ISO 15919.

A few reading pointers:
- ā, ī, ū: the line above the letter indicates a long vowel.
- ṭ, ḍ, ṇ: the dot below distinguishes retroflex consonants from t, d, n.
- A tilde above a vowel indicates nasalisation.

Abraham Lincoln (February 12, 1809 – April 15, 1865) was an American politician who was the 16th president of the United States from 1861 to 1865. Lincoln has been remembered as the "Great Emancipator" because he worked to end slavery in the United States. Lincoln is ranked in presidential opinion polls as the greatest president in U.S. history. Lincoln was from a poor family and his formal schooling was limited to three brief periods in local schools. However, Abraham Lincoln wanted to learn, so he borrowed books from a neighbor. This was before electric lights had been invented. He studied by candlelight. Sometimes they were too poor to buy candles, so then he studied by the light of the fireplace. Later he moved to Illinois. There his neighbor was a lawyer. He studied law books that he borrowed. He became a lawyer without going to college. He was a clever lawyer.In 1858, Lincoln became the Republican candidate for senator from Illinois. He did not win the election, but Republicans all over America read his speeches and admired them.
