whichever way it may be. xkb, scim etc.,

Assume I am a Hindi Desktop user, I am working in gedit and I want to
get the File Menu drop down with the use of mouse, now I am in Hindi
Typing mode, What will be the ideal shortcut way - a Hindi key stroke
or an English key stroke?

Alt + F brings down the File Menu, But this need toggling to English
and then Alt+F is the user is typing Hindi right? But with Hindi
Letter as Short cut, this two step to shortcut is avoided.

the vowel or the consonant can alone be considered, instead of the
vowel+consonent.
