The top of the Hindi Characters are usually cut off for the Hindi (Devanagari) script.
Reproduce:
Start learning
http://community.memrise.com/search?q=top%20hindi%20cut%20off
Start any level containing with an ि or ी or ँ. (e.g. Level 11 बाँज or level 1 विद्यार्थी).
For convenience, ignore all except the words you want to verify this issue for
Start a learning session.
Notice that when the word is presented after an answer is wrong, the top is cut-off. That is this issue.
Impact: some characters cannot distinguished from similar ones.
Correct one is: झाड़ू
Below example, the dot at the top is cut off, which changes actually the charachter into a different one, since there are ones with and ones without a dot. The field to type the correct answer does display the dot, though, fortunately.
Also cut off in multiple choice questions. It’s not as bad, but once I had slight difficulty reading it right. Unfortunately, I wasn’t able to catch the picture in time… If I get a better, I’ll post, but so little time, because the timer is so fast …
Edit: another example:
Usually in the typing field, the letters show well. Not in the case below:
Correct one is: झाड़ू
Another example where the ‘r’ sound at the top is cut off:
Correct:बावर्चीख़ाना - notice the flag a the top in the middle the right part is actually a whole letter and the image cuts this nearly 100% off.
@memrisesupport : it will be very helpful if the spacing on the website could be adjusted in the next web-maintenance round. And many users will be very grateful. Zimorodokan made already a suggestion how to make it more adaptive (though this is for the whole screen):
Try this code in Firefox userContent.css for testing.

They should indeed give more headroom for stacked letters - - same issue with some Tibetan words that have a big stacking.
Thanks. I’ve added Tibetan to the title. I really wish they’ll do something about it.
Oh, if you have a screenshot, it always helps to convince and clarify.
