In the word for 'England', 'Englistaan', the line below the 1st 'n' dot should in written not extend so up,
here due to printing limitations perhaps, it has gone up.
However this point is ignorable.

just a question though, I finished going over all the words you wrote in nagari...

also, in the word - in the word

sirf, why is the "r" mark written above? isn't it supposed to be below?

thank you...those 3 are my only questions

9 April 2013

09/04/2013 16:50

Yash Agrawal
The dot above

indicates nasal sound.

Unlike the dots below letters, dots above letters are not particular to any specific letter, but they can be
written on any letter.
The sound of it varies depending on the next letter/consonant.

09/04/2013 17:01

Yash Agrawal
You know that there are five nasal consonants in Hindi -
So in

, the dot is the 'n' like in 'sand' or 'find'.

i.e.
If you can read

, then it is the same word.

The dot is substituted for the

While reading, see the next letter,
here the next letter is . So is the sound of the dot, because it is the nasal consonant (5th letter) of the
line which has letter

09/04/2013 17:07

Arbee Savedra
ahh i see
so this is about conjunct consonants?

09/04/2013 17:08

Yash Agrawal
yes,

09/04/2013 17:09

Arbee Savedra
ohh i see....thank you very much

09/04/2013 17:09

Yash Agrawal
like the sound of 'n' is different in words - ring, sand, tinge etc. depending on the next letter, so is in Hindi
If the next letter is

or , then there is 'm' sound.

09/04/2013 17:10

Arbee Savedra
ahh yes.....ring sounds more nasalized while sand is not so

09/04/2013 17:11

Yash Agrawal

what do you mean more nasalized ?

All are 'n' but the position of tongue tip touching is different.
compare 'French' and 'friend'.

09/04/2013 17:13

Arbee Savedra
I mean "ring" and "friend" have different sounds
the "n"

09/04/2013 17:13

Yash Agrawal
yes\

09/04/2013 17:14

Arbee Savedra
so what is the sound indicated by that dot plus semi circle?

09/04/2013 17:14

Yash Agrawal
it is called chandra-bindu.
of Urdu

09/04/2013 17:16

Arbee Savedra

ahh i see

09/04/2013 17:18

Yash Agrawal
In Hindi if there is another matra on top of the letter, then even if the sound is of chandrabindu, an
anuswar (dot) only is put above.

09/04/2013 17:20

Arbee Savedra
oh ok...Ill remember that well

09/04/2013 17:23

Yash Agrawal
In the word , if the mark for 'r' was below 'pha', like , then it would become 'sifra' !

09/04/2013 17:24

Arbee Savedra
so if the mark is above, the "r" is said before the consonant and not after it?

09/04/2013 17:24

Yash Agrawal
yes
In a CC conjunct, if it is raffa ra (above r mark), then 'r' takes the place of 1st C.
by the way, 'sifr' is zero in Urdu.


09/04/2013 17:27

Arbee Savedra
and sirf is only?

09/04/2013 17:27

Yash Agrawal
yes

Arbee Savedra
ok...thanks a lot for all those clarifications
