Ebook: Meter, Phonology, and Orthography in Buddhist Hybrid Sanskrit

Yale University, Journal of the American Oriental Society 66, 1946, pp. 197-206Some additions have been made for the electronic edition, they have been placed inside curly brackets. These include the Headings, the original page numbers, and a repetition of the rules at the beginning of the examples which exemplify them, so as to make reference to the rule easier.
All other material given in round and square brackets, is the Author's own.
Edgerton's only footnote gave a list of abbreviations and a bibliography, which is reproduced just below for convenience. Some of the abbreviations and quotations have been regularly spelt out in the electronic version, and so they are omitted from the list as given here.
Note that Edgerton's vocabulary sometimes differs from that used elsewhere on this website, most notably in calling syllables short and long metrically, whereas we prefer to refer to them as being light or heavy. The first few times this occurs in the text I note it, but not thereafter.
