==Other diacritics== There are also several other diacritics used in the Telugu script. [[Virama|్]] mutes the vowel of a consonant, so that only the consonant is pronounced. [[Anusvara|ం]] represents a corresponding class nasal sound when followed by a consonant from that class (i.e., the last column of the corresponding consonant row for the first five rows of the consonants table); when not followed by anything or by a consonant from the first five rows of the consonant table, it represents a true nasal sound. [[Chandrabindu|ఁ]] represents a historically used {{lang|te|ం}} that is no longer pronounced, or a nasalized vowel when transliterating other languages (e.g., Hindi) into the Telugu script. [[Visarga|ః]] adds a voiceless breath after the vowel or syllable it is attached to. {| class="wikitable" |- align="center" |{{Letter|s=Telu|ch=ం|iso=ṁ}} |{{Letter|s=Telu|ch=ఁ|iso=n̆}} |{{Letter|s=Telu|ch=ః|iso=ḥc}} |{{Letter|s=Telu|ch=్|iso=}} |} Examples: {| | style="font-size:14pt;" width="150px" | క + ్ → క్ {{nbsp|2}} || {{Transliteration|te|ISO|ka}} + ∅ → {{Transliteration|te|ISO|k}}</tr> | style="font-size:14pt;" | క + ఁ → కఁ || {{Transliteration|te|ISO|ka}} + {{Transliteration|te|ISO|n̆}} → {{Transliteration|te|ISO|kan̆}}</tr> | style="font-size:14pt;" | క + ం → కం || {{Transliteration|te|ISO|ka}} + {{Transliteration|te|ISO|ṁ}} → {{Transliteration|te|ISO|kaṁ}}</tr> | style="font-size:14pt;" | క + ః → కః || {{Transliteration|te|ISO|ka}} + {{Transliteration|te|ISO|ḥ}} → {{Transliteration|te|ISO|kaḥ}}</tr> |} ===Marginal and archaic diacritics and signs=== *{{angbr|◌఼}}: Telugu nuqta *{{angbr|ఽ}}: Telugu avagraha *{{angbr|ౝ}}: Nakara pollu *{{angbr|ఀ}}: The combining candrabindu nasal vowel diacritic of the Telugu script *{{angbr|ఄ }}: Combining anusvara above *{{angbr|౷}}: Siddham sign *{{angbr|౿}}: Tuumu sign
