Kaithi {{subst:User:Vanisaac/iast|}}

Kaithi independent vowel and vowel sign {{subst:User:Vanisaac/iast|}}.

{{subst:User:Vanisaac/iast|}} ({{subst:User:Vanisaac/kthi|}}) is a vowel of the Kaithi abugida. It ultimately arose from the Brahmi letter [[Image:Brahmi {{subst:lc:}}.svg|13px|{{subst:User:Vanisaac/iast|}}]], via the Siddhaṃ letter [[Image:Siddham {{subst:lc:}}.svg|x15px|{{subst:User:Vanisaac/iast|}}]] '. Like in other Indic scripts, Kaithi vowels have two forms: an independent letter for word and syllable-initial vowel sounds, and a vowel sign for changing the inherent "a" of consonant letters. Vowel signs in Kaithi usually sit adjacent to its base consonant - below, to the left, right, or both left and right, but are always pronounced after the consonant sound. No base consonants are altered in form when adding a vowel sign, and there are no consonant+vowel ligatures in Kaithi.
