So if you were conlanging, and your language had [w], but not [j] or [h], and you were adapting Devanagari for the orthography, would you use
य or ह to represent [w]?
#conlanging#the phonology of this has a series of retroflex consonants and Hindi is the only language I have any experience with that has those#and so combined with my love of CV and (C)V syllables it made sense to me to use Devanagari right now#I’ll probably make a script later but yknow for right now#right now I’m using the glyph for h btw bc I kind of like how it looks better
