 Translation Articles / Translator Education / by Balasubramaniam
The correct usage of the chandrabindu requires a very high level of knowledge of Hindi spelling, samas, sandhi and word formation, and it would be a serious mistake to use it where it should not be used or to omit it where it should be used.
Often translators use the chandrabindu at one or two places or in the spellings of one or two words, but omit it in other places either due to ignorance of the use of the chandrabindu or due to carelessness, and end up sacrificing uniformity of spelling and internal consistency of their translated material.
To avoid such pitfalls, it is recommended that the chandrabindu (ँ) be never used, and it be replaced throughout by the anuswar (ं).
