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 #2 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.

UKT 190721: For the Bur-Myan (Tib-Bur group), row#2 is Palatal stops, whereas for Eng-Lat and Skt-Dev (IE group), this row is Palatal affricates. Since my primary target audience are Tib-Bur (Myanmar languages) and Sino-Tib (CJK languages), I shall treat this row as Palatal plosive-stops. I have to leave out the Mon-Myan speakers, Southern Indian Tamil-Telugus, and Ceylon-Lankans (Aus-Asi group)for the present. This necessitates differentiation of Pali-Lanka and International-Pali as Aus-Asi (row#2 as Palatal Affricates), and Pali-Myan as Tib-Bur (row#2 Palatal Stops).
