=====Consonant-consonant ligatures=====
Although there are consonant-consonant ligatures used even now like {{lang|ml|ന്ത}} and {{lang|ml|ണ്ട}} almost all clusters were written as ligatures before 1971, most of the time the second consonant was written to the bottom right of the first consonant, in consonant + r clusters the {{lang|ml| ്ര}} was attached to the main consonant, now its detached and placed to the left.
