===Miśra vowels and vocalics===
There are six additional vowel and syllabic consonants in the ''miśra'' alphabet. The two [[diphthong]]s are quite common, while the vocalic ṛ is much rarer, and ḷ is all but obsolete. The latter two are almost exclusively found in loanwords from Sanskrit.{{sfnp|Matzel|1983|p=8}}

The ''miśra'' {{angle bracket|ṛ}} can also be written with ''śuddha'' {{angle bracket|r}}+{{angle bracket|u}} or {{angle bracket|u}}+{{angle bracket|r}}, which corresponds to the actual [[pronunciation]]. The ''miśra'' syllabic ḷ can be replaced by ''śuddha'' {{angle bracket|l}}+{{angle bracket|i}}.{{sfnp|Matzel|1983|p=14}} Miśra {{angle bracket|au}} is rendered as  ''śuddha'' {{angle bracket|awu}}, ''miśra'' {{angle bracket|ai}}  as ''śuddha'' {{angle bracket|ayi}}.
