A first look at the lesson
Both tables use English letters, so a Hindi name is numbered as it is written in English: the spelling on your documents and your signature. One name can be spelt several ways, and each spelling can give a different number.
Hindi sounds are spelt in different ways: a long ई as I or EE, थ as T or TH, ध as D or DH. Each extra letter adds its number.
