Indian Palaeography c12.s7.9

c12.s7.9

In some examples cursive forms of the medial vowels can be seen. In these cases the angular shape of *i* becomes rounded (*pi* in the Erragudi R.E.); *u* in *tu* slants upward (the Dhauli and Jaugad R.E.); *o* in *go* (the Rummindei M.P.I.) becomes one long stroke going across the top of the consonant. In the Girnar R.E. the strokes for *mā*, *me*, and *mo* are given in the middle instead of at the top of the consonant.
