About Me[edit]

I registered as a Wikipedia contributor for the purpose of helping with Unicode Sinhala related issues in articles. If you have any issues with using the Sinhala script in Wikipedia, feel free to contact me.

'Sinhala' Vs 'Sinhalese'[edit]

'Sinhala' is the preferred word for the language as per the Sri Lankan constitution and ISO 639:

18. 3[(1)] The Official Language of Sri Lanka shall be Sinhala. ^[1]

sin si Sinhala; Sinhalese ^[2]

'Sinhala' is the preferred word for the script as per ISO 15924:

Sinh 	348 	Sinhala 	singhalais 	Sinhala 	2004-05-01 ^[3]
