A number of points perhaps worth mentioning:
An additional question would be: If a lexical item such as ۂسؠ تِنؠ /həsʲ tinʲ/ elephant won't fit completely at the end of a line, is it necessary to prevent a line break after the first KASHMIRI YEH, or is it ok to wrap the characters after the first KASHMIRI YEH to the next line?
In the middle of the lexical items in the following excerpt from a dictionary the Kashmiri text uses the final or isolate form of KASHMIRI YEH, rather than a medial or initial form (which would have a circle below a simple base). The latin transcription sometimes shows a lexical item as two parts separated by a space, and sometimes there is no space. As this is hand-written text, it is not clear whether the final form is produced because there is always a space between two morphological items, or produced without a space. There are other locations in the dictionary that show similar situations.
In Wiktionary there are also lexical items made up of two such parts, and a final KASHMIRI YEH is always followed by a space.
The following text implies that there should be a space.
However, there is a discussion on the Unicode site about whether the final form should also be produced without a following space. This may affect the future implementation of palatalisation.
Can anyone clarify whether printed text should or should not have a space after the final form of KASHMIRI YEH?
