This Guide is essentially intended to cover the scripts relevant to the languages with which the DHARMA project is concerned, i.e., in alphabetical order (omitting the adjective “Old” relevant in most cases): Balinese, Cam, Javanese, Kannada, Khmer, Malay, Prakrit, Sanskrit, Sundanese, Tamil, Telugu. However, the recommendations we give here are certainly intended to be compatible with and extensible to other languages and scripts. We request from colleagues reading and using this text to draw our attention to phenomena in the covered languages/scripts that we have so far failed to address, and to give suggestions on how they might be integrated, as well as to phenomena in languages/scripts so far not covered that may cause issues of compatibility.

Mots clés: Kannada; Javanese; Cam; Balinese; Indic Scripts; Khmer; Telugu; Prakrit; Sanskrit; Sundanese; Tamil; transliteration; ERC-DHARMA; Malay
