The Indian-abakada is a way to write Tagalog with the Devanagari alphabet devised by กฤตธัช แก้วฟุ้ง (Krittathat Kaeofung) to show it is possible to write Tagalog with other scripts. It works in a similar way to Baybayin, one of the scripts used for Tagalog.
This chart shows the Devanagari letters, their Baybayin and Latin equivalents, and their pronunciation in the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA).

Ang lahat ng tao'y isinilang na malaya at pantay-pantay sa karangalan at mga karapatan. Sila'y pinagkalooban ng katwiran at budhi at dapat magpalagayan ang isa't isa sa diwa ng pagkakapatiran.
All human beings are born free and equal in dignity and rights. They
are endowed with reason and conscience and should act towards one another
in a spirit of brotherhood.
