Samples taken from Samsad English-Bengali Dictionary. Sailendra Biswas (1999).

 


Sample of the Samsad transliteration scheme taken from page vi
('w' is shown as being transliterated as letter 'o+ yya-phalaa') The note after the 'w' entry says that the 'w' is similar to the conjunct letter Ha+Va('ha' + 'ba-phalaa' (which is pronounced 'hw(o)'))

 

 

Entry for 'war' from page 785.
( This example shows both the 'o + yya-phalaa' used for 'w' and also the 'a+ya-phalaa' as used for the 'aw' sound.)
