Since the set of vowels and consonants in Sanskrit are different from those of English, reading transliterated Sanskrit can be a challenge. The following tips and techniques p will hel you read transliterated Sanskrit, and help you get an idea of how it should be pronounced. Before y ou b egin It is very useful to take a moment and clear your mind of any notions of how to pronounce a transliterated Sanskrit t word. Jus focus on the word in front of you and try not to lengthen vowels or stress a syllable based on past habits or other influences. Tip 1: Kn ow t he l ong a nd s hort v owel sounds In English, a vowel sound can either be short (e.g. foot) or long (e.g. cool). Sanskrit also short has and long vowel . sounds The problem is, it is hard to find out just by looking at the spelling, which vowel s is long and which one i short. Let’s take an example: a yoga posture is called ‘asana’ in Sanskrit. If you make the second ‘a’ long, then it becomes ‘a-­‐saa-­‐na’, which is incorrect. If you ’ make the first ‘a long, then it becomes ‘aa-­‐sa-­‐ na’, which is correct. In this document, we will write long vowels , using uppercase letters and short vowels using lower-­‐case letters.
