Translation in proper Devanagari script

  • Problem: improper pronunciation and translation in Devanagari

  • Proposed solution: improving the pronunciation by breaking words into sounds example शनिः श्+अ+न+ि+ः by this we can understand and pronounce words in Sanskrit easily
  • More comments: please add more Indian literature in context of Wikipedia
  • Phabricator tickets:

I suppose it should be achievable by using a font that do not compose on user's end?C933103 (talk) 00:03, 13 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@07Kaustubh: It's not clear what is being asked for. Can you tell us where this pronounciation will be added? Adding Indian literature is something that will go on Wikisource and not Wikipedia. -- NKohli (WMF) (talk) 20:03, 16 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Unfortunately I have to archive this proposal since it's not clear what's being asked for and the proposer has not replied back. Thank you. -- NKohli (WMF) (talk) 23:41, 20 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
