Talk:برُو

Spelling

@Akhaeron The cited source indeed has the spelling بروُ with the pesh diacritic on و. However, Khowar should follow Urdu orthography whenever possible since

[it] is a modification of the Urdu alphabet

And in the Urdu alphabet pesh should be placed

upon the preceding consonant

so wouldn’t the original spelling برُو be correct? Kutchkutch (talk) 06:16, 18 July 2024 (UTC)

Same issue with

پُلُوݰوُ (final pesh should be on ݰ rather than و)

ݯھُوئی (pesh should be on ݯ rather than ھ)

پھُنیک (pesh should be on پ rather than ھ)

See

MOD:ur-translit/documentation#Usage_notes

The aspirate 'he' (i.e. do-chashme-he, ھ (h)) does NOT need ANY DIACRITICS in ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, all diacritics should either go on the previous letter or on the following letter.

I see, I wasn't aware of this as I was really just following the cited source as well as a dictionary. Akhaeron (talk) 10:09, 20 July 2024 (UTC)
