This is one particular - and concise - dictionary. There are many other sources that don't make this distinction, for example the Unicode Consortium's documents about South Asian scripts: http://www.unicode.org/versions/Unicode6.1.0/ Unicode calls all South Asian scripts "Indic". This is the common term in discussions of computing in these languages, which this list is about. Again: Let's not make up controversy. -- Amir _______________________________________________ Wikimediaindia-l mailing list [email protected] To unsubscribe from the list / change mailing preferences visit https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikimediaindia-l
