The Sanskrit names and their prākṛta and Hindī variations as well as their vulgarized forms have led to some confusion as to the identity of the names of the melodies and their proper designations. These variations have been given, as far as possible, in the descriptive notes on the Plates. But some of the parallel names may be cited here by way of illustrations: Bhairava=Bhairon; Varāṭī=Varāḍī; Deśākhyā=Desākh; Deśī=Deś; Āśāvarī=Āswāri; Mallārikā=Malhār, Malār; Gūrjjarī=Gujrī; Deva-Gāndhāra=Deo-gāndhār; Travaṇā=Trapaṇā, Trivanī; Triveṇī Hāmvīrī=Hāmmīr; Aḍḍānā=Ādāna.
