Syllable-final /i/ and /u/[edit]
- @SodhakSH For native (non-borrowed) words, there is an orthographic rule that
- Syllable-final /i/ and /u/ are long
- Elsewhere, /i/ and /u/ are short
- However, learned borrowings from Sanskrit with syllable-final इ / उ may or may not follow this rule. For example, there are entries for both बधीर (badhīr) and बधिर (badhir). Do you think there be a
{{lengthened form of}}redirect for बधीर (badhīr) if the main entry is बधिर (badhir) and a{{shortened form of}}redirect for बधिर (badhir) if the main entry is बधीर (badhīr)? Kutchkutch (talk) 09:04, 24 April 2021 (UTC)- Yes, there should be. 🔥शब्दशोधक🔥 12:37, 24 April 2021 (UTC)
