NOTE:
▪️Stress the letters that are in bold. Ex: bhaje
▪️Extend the letters that have a line on the letter. Example: rāja
▪️Letter ‘na’ and ‘la’ have two different pronunciations. If the letter is in uppercase (caps) ‘N’ or ‘L’, make sure to touch the tip of the tongue to the upper palate of the mouth. For example, ‘puNyam’; the latter is the normal pronunciation.
▪️Similar to ‘na’, we have two different pronunciations for ‘sha’. In ‘shiva’, ‘sh’ is simple and the normal pronunciation. In ‘viShNu’, if you observe “S” is in caps. ‘Sh’ should sound like ‘shut’, where you can feel the air releasing out of the mouth.
