From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Langdi was a script commonly used by traders used to write Haryanvi, Punjabi, or Saraiki in the Indian subcontinent . [1] Bookkeepers, known as munīm ( Hindi: मुनीम, Urdu: مُنیم), would also keep records in this script. [1]

Some scholars have claimed that Langdi is a form of Mahajani for writing in parts of Haryana. Its proper connection must be more thoroughly explored. [2]
