Notes
- 1. Only the vowel forms that appear at the beginning of a syllable are listed; the forms used for vowels following a consonant can be found in grammars; no distinction between the two is made in transliteration.
- 2. The vowel a is implicit after all consonants and consonant clusters and is supplied in transliteration, with the following exceptions:
- a) when another vowel is indicated by its appropriate sign; and
- b) when the absence of any vowel is indicated by the subscript sign ( ୍ ) called hasanta.
- 3. ବ is used both as a labial and as a semivowel. When it occurs as the second consonant of a consonant cluster, it is transliterated va. When ବ is doubled, it is transliterated bba.
- 4. Exception: Anusvāra is transliterated by:
- a) ṅ before gutturals,
- b) ñ before palatals,
- c) ṇ before cerebrals,
- d) n before dentals, and
- e) m before labials.
- 5. Candrabindu before guttural, palatal, cerebral, and dental occlusives is transliterated n̐. Before labials, sibilants, semivowels, the aspirate, vowels, and in final position it is transliterated m̐.
- 6. When doubled, abagraha is transliterated by two apostrophes ( ’’ ).
