Caution: My main difficulty in learning Skt-Dev, is to become familiar with horizontal conjuncts. I've no choice but to rely on my knowledge of Bur-Myan and Pali-Myan, to come up with a compromise in giving the akshara-equivalents, knowing fully well that it would not make my pronunciation of Skt-Dev any better. It might even a detriment. But since, translation is my ultimate aim, using the motto of Shin Kic'si -- the Buddhist grammarian praised by Gautama Buddha himself -- I have to be content with what is available to me.

To aid me in my task, I'm preparing a Sanskrit Glossary for Buddhists and Hindus , based on the Sonority Scale, in which begins with Consonants and Vowels last: an arrangement used in Bur-Myan dictionaries and glossaries:
The original Glossary files given by Sanskrit Documents has become so unmanageable in size that I've to divide it into sub-files. Since, I'm including Pali terms from UPMT, I've to subdivide down to columns :

This file is on Row #1 Columns 3, 4, & 5

Entries on Skt from SktDoc are in Devanagari characters, and on Pali from U Pe Maung Tin (UPT) are in International Pali characters. Be careful to check diacritics when using UPT. Astrological terms are given for which I'm giving the symbols for:
Luminaries (commonly and mistakenly called Planets): ☼ ☽ ♂ ☿ ♃ ♀ ♄ 
Rasis (Signs of Zodiac): ♈ ♉ ♊ ♋ ♌ ♍ ♎ ♏ ♐ ♑ ♒ ♓

The 4 pairs below are known as {þa.wuN} "similar or beautiful pairs"

{ga.} ग  {ga} गा
{gi.} गि  {gi} गी
{gu.} गु  {gu} गू
{gRRi.} गृ

The 2 pairs below are known as {a.þa.wuN} "dissimilar ugly pairs". They are problematical, because some vowels are missing in languages, e.g. /é/ is absent in Eng-Lat, and /ao/ is absent in Bur-Myan but present in Mon-Myan. Because of this fact and also because the back-vowels are very near each other, there are bound to be un-solvable problems phonetically. E.g. /ɑ/, /ɔ/, & /o/. The only way to analyze them is to measure the formants in the speech of modern speakers. Still we do not know how the ancient speakers had pronounced them. I've to compare the "ugly pairs" of different languages and come to a "happy medium" which you can take or ignore. For comparing Skt-Dev to Bur-Myan, I use the diacritics over the individual glyphs.
