===Marginal and archaic consonants===
* Additionally there are ౘ (ĉa) and ౙ (ẑa) for /t͡sa, d͡za/ which are rarely used, letters for <c, j> are commonly used instead.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://omniglot.com/writing/telugu.htm|title=Telugu alphabet, pronunciation and language}}</ref> They are referred in Telugu as '''dantya ca''' and '''dantya ja''' respectively. During the last century, ఱ (ṟa) known as '''banḍi ra''' in Telugu has been dropped. This letter is referred to as '''banḍi ra''' as opposed to ర (ra) which is referred to as '''repha'''.
