Which script is used to write standard Hindi?

Standard Hindi is written using the Devanagari script.12

This writing system, which is also used for languages such as Sanskrit, Marathi, and Nepali, is characterized by a continuous horizontal line that runs along the tops of the letters. Devanagari is a combination of a syllabary and an alphabet, and in modern Hindi, it is often supplemented with a dot, known as a nuqtā, to represent sounds borrowed from other languages.1
