Notes

  1. ^ a b c In the letter series beginning with क, क = क् + अ; ka = k + a. Thus 'क' has the inherent vowel 'अ', giving 'क' without added vowel sign using diacritics (The halanta "्" is removed). But the IPA shown here has the consonant 'k' only & does not include the vowel 'a'.
  2. ^ a b c d /t/ and /d/ are mostly pronounced as dental stops [t̪] and [d̪], with the tongue touching the teeth, but alveolar pronunciation is also common.
  3. ^ Often merged with [s].
  4. ^ Almost always merged with फ.
  5. ^ Replaced with [dʑ] in initial position in Sanskrit words and whenever it is after [r] followed by central vowels ([ə] and [a]). Replaced with vowel [e] in between central vowels.
  6. ^ Allophone of [r] in most times. Allophone of intervocalic [d].
  7. ^ Often pronounced as [rʰ]. Allophone of intervocalic [dʰ].
  8. ^ Merged with [s].
  9. ^ [v], [w] and intermediate [ʋ] are allophonic in Maithili. Often pronounced as [b] between central vowels. In Perso-Arabic words, replaced with vowel [o] in initial position. Pronounced as [bh] in English words.
  10. ^ Commonly, pronounced as [kh]. Found in Perso-Arabic loanwords. Also, a remnant of Sanskrit jihvamuliya.

  14. ^ a b /aː/ and /əː/ both are represented in ISO 15919 as 'ā'.
  15. ^ /ɐ/ occurs as a conditioned allophone of /ə/ in initial position of a word.
