For example, 21 is read एक-वीस (1-twenty). Also, a two digit number that ends with a 9 is considered to be the next tens place minus one. For example, 29 is एकोणतीस (एक-उणे-तीस) (thirty minus one). Two digit numbers used before <i>Hazara</i> are written in the same way. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Marathi_on_computers_and_the_Internet">Marathi on computers and the Internet</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Marathi_language&action=edit&section=34" title="Edit section: Marathi on computers and the Internet"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Shrilipee, Shivaji, kothare 2,4,6, <a href="/wiki/Kiran_fonts" class="mw-redirect" title="Kiran fonts">Kiran fonts</a> KF-Kiran<sup id="cite_ref-120" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-120"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>120<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> and many more (about 48) are <a href="/wiki/Clip_font" title="Clip font">clip fonts</a> that were used prior to the introduction of <a href="/wiki/Unicode" title="Unicode">Unicode</a> standard for <a href="/wiki/Devanagari_script" class="mw-redirect" title="Devanagari script">Devanagari script</a>.
