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

Sanskrit (संस्कृत भाषा) review centers on this evidence: check Devanagari vowel length, conjuncts, sandhi boundaries, compounds, names, and recitation-specific forms with a specialist. For underspecified sa, CLDR supplies Deva (Devanagari script) as a likely/default web-locale hint—not an audio attribute or exclusive Sanskrit orthography. 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 Sanskrit orthography, sandhi policy, and transliteration scheme is required. Before batch editing sa, a reviewer must record which Sanskrit orthography, sandhi policy, and transliteration scheme is required and attach a source timestamp to disputed text.
