What type of matra (vowel sign) is used when the vowel "ए" (like 'a' in 'ape') attaches to a consonant?
Hint:
The matra is a symbol used to indicate the vowel sound.
Explanation
When "ए" attaches to a consonant, it uses the matra "े" — a hook written above the top bar (shirorekha) of the consonant.
