?? missing characters #13

Closed funderburkjim closed 3 years ago

funderburkjim commented 3 years ago

As @Andhrabharati mentioned, there are several cases in ap90.txt where '??' is used to indicate missing text.

This issue devoted to finding unicode or devanagari to fix these omissions.

These are in the 'Prosody' appendix.

The symbols used in mw.txt for long and short syllables are (ref: mw-meta2) :

¯  (\u00af)    53 := MACRON  Long in metric pattern
˘  (\u02d8)    48 := BREVE   Short in metric pattern

Yes, it is 'ti'.

rNa

Remembered that I have a print AP57 Based on that (Appendix, p. 5), I think DanAnyar{??}yaDvaM -> DanAnyarjayaDvaM = Danani + arjayaDvaM So full line repeats the same phrase: 265685 new <>{#DanAnyarjayaDvaM DanAnyarjayaDvam ..#}

From Sanskrit heritage (https://sanskrit.inria.fr/cgi-bin/SKT/sktlemmatizer.cgi?lex=SH&q=arjayaDvam&t=SL&c=Verb), arjayadhvam lemmatizes as: [ṛj]{ca. imp. md. pl. 2}

So phrase means something like 'obtain wealth'.

funderburkjim commented 3 years ago

265733 new <>{#vrajakAminIka{??}linIkftakeliH .#}

I think this is 'ma': <>{#vrajakAminIkamalinIkftakeliH .#}

Based on Printed ap57, Appendix A, p. 7 (Meters with 13 syllables in a quarter)

Semi-circle or bindu?

  1. The image in the AP90 page (see above) does look like a candra-bindu (there is a dot above the semicircle).
  2. Interestingly, in the printed AP57 There is NO image. image
  3. I could find no visual image of this 'semicircle' in nAda yoga web searches. It would be nice to find some Sanskrit Document on this topic where the symbol in question is either shown visually or described in some unambiguous way.

Conclusion: I'll use the U+25E1 character (lower half circle) for now at least;

@Andhrabharati and @gasyoun --- thanks for feedback on these questions.

(The last line in p.81, and the para continuing in p.82 shows/discusses this clearly)

[Interestingly this is referring to the same Apte entry!!]

That should be enough for now.

[Interestingly this is referring to the same Apte entry!!]

Good catch, as usual.

funderburkjim commented 3 years ago

Interesting discussion of p.81/2.

Another possibility for the 'semicircle' might be U+1CD8 (VEDIC TONE CANDRA BELOW) shown in Unicode Vedic Extensions
