Abstract
Language planning, especially corpus planning in Sindhi
language has remained untouched so far, for which plenty of language related issues never got simplified. Recently, a query related to proper diacri cal mark on le er ‘ ’خ of word ‘ ’ אب was made
by Assistant Professor Zaraar Rustamani, who is working on the
literature of Molvi Ahmed Mallah, regarding Sindhi Orthography.
The diacri cal mark of ‘ ’خ in the word ‘ ’ אب varies in dic onaries
of Sindhi language, such as: ‘Pesh, Zabar and Jazam’. Actually,
the func on of ‘wao Ishmam/ maadoola’ is to connect the
‘ ’خ le er used before it with the vowel le er used a/er it. It is
observed through studies that a/er le er ‘ ’خ every ‘ ’و is not
ishmam/ madoolah, as in: ‘ ’ ن or ‘ ’ ب Wao Ishmam/ Maadoola’
acts only when it is followed by le ers: ) Nasal ن ,ش ,س , , ,د ,א
Vowel), ! and . Due to the presence of ‘wao ishmam/ ي
madoolah’ in a word a diacri cal mark may not be used for le er
