		Nepal Bhasa (Newah Bhaye)is classified as a language of Sino-Tibetan family of languages.
		In the devanagari script used for Sanskrit/Nepal Bhasa, whenever a consonant in a word-ending position is without any virāma (ie, freely standing in the orthography: प as opposed to प्), the neutral vowel schwa (/ə/) is automatically associated with it—this is of course true for the consonant to be in any position in the word.
		Nepal Bhasa is the most Indianized of the Tibeto-Burman languages, and has had so many centuries of contact with neighboring Indo-Iranian languages that it has even developed noun inflection, a trait typical of the Indo-European family but extremely rare in Sino-Tibetan.
