CLDR likely/default locale: Deva; not audio/sole script—confirm project choice
Direction
Left to right

Nepali (नेपाली) review centers on this evidence: inspect Devanagari vowel signs, conjuncts, honorifics, postpositions, names, and Nepali–English switches. CLDR expansion gives ne a likely Deva default (Devanagari script). Never reinterpret that web-locale fallback as detected recording metadata or Nepali’s sole script. Confirm the actual orthography and script with the project owner before normalizing any text. Orthographic targets include vowel signs, conjunct consonants, word boundaries, names, and code-switched terms. Project decision: which Nepali standard and treatment of English names the project adopts. Before batch editing ne, a reviewer must record which Nepali standard and treatment of English names the project adopts and attach a source timestamp to disputed text.

Questions from the workflow

What must a Nepali editor decide before correcting the transcript?

vowel signs, consonant clusters, inflected forms, names, and borrowed speech should follow the selected standard rather than an automatic transliteration. For Nepali, inspect Devanagari vowel signs, conjuncts, honorifics, postpositions, names, and Nepali–English switches. Project choice: which Nepali standard and treatment of English names the project adopts. Keep unresolved forms beside their source timestamps.
