		The anusvara is commonly used in conjunction with a vowel sign that extends above the headstroke.
		The anusvara is written above the headstroke, at the right-hand end of the preceding character.
		Note that the anusvara is still applied when the previous character has its own vowel sign.

		Banda Gelek explains that the visarga and anusvara are both parts of letters, as indeed they are in the writing of Indian languages.
		The anusvara indicates that the last "ya" is nasalised, such as in the pronunciation of syllables such as "om" and "hum".
		Notice that the crescent shaped visarga is associated here with the sun, and is therefore usually red in colour, and that the circular shaped bindu (anusvara) is associated with the moon, and is therefore usually white.

		In other circumstances, pronounce anusvAra as anusvAra, i.e., shut your mouth, relax your tongue and let the voiced breath pass purely through the nose.
		My understanding is as follows: 1) If the anusvara is followed by a consonant ('ka' to 'ma') it takes the sound of the last consonant in the specific varga.
		In Kerala, the anusvara is sometimes pronounced as the full 'ma' and not just 'm'.

		In the list below both spellings are correct and equivalent, although anusvara is preferred in the case of the first two: à¤°à¤à¤—= à¤°à¤à¥à¤—, à¤ªà¤à¤à¤¾à¤¬à¥= à¤ªà¤à¥à¤à¤¾à¤¬à¥, à¤¹à¤¿à¤à¤¦à¥= à¤¹à¤¿à¤¨à¥à¤¦à¥, à¤²à¤à¤¬à¤¾= à¤²à¤®à¥à¤¬à¤¾.
		Anusvara is still applied when previous character has its own vowel sign.
		The logic behind this is that the nukta modifies the character, whereas the vowel signs and anusvara or candrabindu modify the syllable.

		They are crowded within a small space and the first letter, though at first sight it seems to present some difficulty in reading, shows on closer examinations all the features of the vowel-consonant 'Ko'.
		The second letter is clearly 've' and the third letter is a clear 'ta'.
		If we read it before 'ta' the inscription would read as 'Koventa', but if we read the anusvara after 'ta', the reading 'Kovetan', is possible.
