TGs support reader/learners to learn just what you need to
understand each verse.
Best Practices:
Sing the verse, read the translation, read the verse, go back and
forth looking at the details, until as you sing it you understand what
it says in itself. A bit of patient practice will reward you when you
can sing it with understanding.
Study intently, use your creativity and earnestness,
even reverence, to look at it different ways, and capture it. Also, come back in 15, 60 minutes, and
after a day and a week. Then you will know it later.
Devanagari Script Learner
Also spend a few minutes clicking back and forth between IPA and
Devanagari in the script learner, until you feel some familiarity.
Soon you will know the sounds for all the symbols.
