What is the effect of adding the virama (्) below the letter घ (gha) in Hindi?
Hint:Think about the sound and structure of the Hindi words when the virama is added
It changes the sound of the consonant to a different one
It silences the inherent 'a' vowel and makes this consonant join the next one without a vowel between them
It makes the consonant stand alone and is not connected to the next consonant
It changes the direction of the writing from left to right to right to left
Explanation
When the virama (्) is added below the letter घ (gha), it silences the inherent 'a' vowel and makes this consonant join the next one without a vowel between them.
