³ The Bārākhaḍī has been printed in Bombay and can be obtained through Pandit Jeshṭaram Mukundji. It is described by Molesworth, Marāṭhī Dictionary *sub voce* **बारसकडी**, and by Narmadāshankar in his Gujarātī Dictionary *sub voce* **बाराखडी**. This latter work states that the syllables *ka*, *kā* and so forth down to *kaḥ* are the Bārākhaḍī of *ka*.
