Talk:ਦਸਵਾ

Hi! How exactly do we know that the word ends in a nasal? Smettems (talk) 01:59, 21 April 2021 (UTC)
 * The transliteration is shown as dasavāṁ on page 149 of R:inc-opa:Glossary. On page xxvi of R:inc-opa:Glossary, it says
 * In the transcription an historically justified -ṁ is written where appropriate
 * even if the Gurmukhi script does not indicate the word-final nasal. Kutchkutch (talk) 10:00, 22 April 2021 (UTC)
 * Thank you! Would we be able to (or want to) use a standardized orthography, and list variants (similarly to how Middle English and Old English are handled)? Smettems (talk) 20:05, 22 April 2021 (UTC)
 * For now, it would be better to use the spellings as they appear in R:inc-opa:Glossary until Old Punjabi is better understood. The historically justified nasal could be indicated with the ts parameter as:
 * inc-opa or inc-opa-adj
 * so that it displays
 * ਦਸਵਾ (dasavā /dasavāṁ/)
 * for the headword. Kutchkutch (talk) 10:55, 23 April 2021 (UTC)
 * That sounds good. Thanks! Smettems (talk) 15:23, 23 April 2021 (UTC)
