The 'w' in 'swastika'
Concerning the etymology, I'm trying to find out where the 'w' comes from, but I haven't found anything. It isn't part of any of the major Devanagari transliteration schemes. व would normally be 'va' in English. My personal suspicion is that the English spelling is from German, but as I say I can't confirm it.—Caoimhin ceallach (talk) 13:52, 3 July 2022 (UTC)
