While the list of ThaaTs is comprehensive, the list of raags is not. Additional information may please be sent as messages to the Facebook community, Indpaedia.com. All information used will be gratefully acknowledged in your name.

A pronunciation guide

Indians, indeed, South Asians, need not read this guide. They will immediately guess our system, even if they do not know Hindi-Urdu,

For others:

Diacritical marks above vowels double their sound.

A diacritical mark above an ‘ñ’ makes it a nasalised, ‘half’ n as in soNg, briNg, bruNt, caN’t, loNg, ENglish etc.

Capital T and D mean that the T and D are hard, as in the English language.

The capital N denotes a hard n, which non-Indians might find cumbersome. They can stick to the normal n.

Small t and d indicate the soft t and d of Spanish, French and Italian. The d sound is close to the English th (as in THere, THis, THat etc.)

An accentuated é should be pronounced as in French.

Kãfî

S-R-g-m-P-D-n-S

Dhanashri, the little feminine raag.
Late 17th century, Rajasthan

Notes (swar) used: The notes of Khamaj Thaat + Komal Gãñdhãr

The ‘f’ sound does not exist in Hindi or most Indian languages. They have the ‘ph’ sound instead. Thus, the Hindi word for ‘successful’ is ‘saphal’ and not ‘safal,’ as is almost invariably assumed. For the same reason, you will find some scholarly sites that use the transliteration kãphî (for काफी) instead. It is a mediæval rãg. By then the ‘f’ sound had reached India with the Persian language. Therefore, unless an authority tells us why not, Indpaedia will continue to use the popular pronunciation, which is kãfî. (We repeat: just because safal is the popular pronunciation it does not become correct.)

Why this page?

This page was created in order to give laymen just the names and correct pronunciations of the Ten Thaats and the important raags/ ragas. (However, as the page grows it will have other information as well. It already does.)

Why should Indians, especially those who can read Hindi in Devanagari, need pronunciation guides to their own raags/ ragas?

Because of all the inaccurate information available in print and on the internet. Because of spellings like सिंदूरा (instead of सिन्धुरा), हिंदोल (instead of हिन्डोल), हामीर (instead of हमीर), जेजैवंती (instead of जयजयवन्ती or जैजैवंती; our problem is with the first जे, which should have been a जै), वसंत (instead of बसन्त), हंसकंकणी (instead of हंसकिंकिणी), मल्लार (instead of मल्हार), ललिट and Lalat (instead of ललित and Lalit), जैनपुरी (instead of जौनपुरी), र्गाधार (instead of गन्धार), देश (instead of देस), haunsdhwani (instead of hañsdhwani), रागेश्वरी (instead of रागेश्री) and बागेश्वरी (instead of बागेश्री). All these mistakes have been made by scholarly publications.

This tends to confuse even those who know the basics of Hindustani classical music.
