Talk:Shahada, Maharashtra

message: *On maps I have seen this town name spelled Shāhāda with the first 'a' long. But the Devanagari spelling of this town name on a road signpost in the image at this link is शहादा i.e. Shahādā with the first 'a' short (as in "shahāda" the piece of Arabic text). (Shāhādā would be शाहादा .) Which is correct? Anthony Appleyard (talk) 09:17, 6 October 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Obviously name given on road signboard is correct and pronounced that way. There are attempts made to translate Devanagari in english but unforunately no success. There is no translator software. people spell devanagari words in english the way they like. Personally, I will type 'Shahada' as 'Shahaada' if it is in lyrics of some song. It seems you can read Devanagari. Then you should take look how devanagari waords are spelled in english on internet. It is total mess. For example, take a look at these lyris of sad song from Tere naam...
---------------------------
mar ke bhi na vaadaa apnaa toDenge
ik dooje kaa saath kabhi na chhoDenge
apnaa to sadiyoN janmoN kaa naataa hai
jaan se jaan ko kaun judaa kar paataa hai
tere sivaa, tere sivaa
tere sivaa is dariyaa kaa nahin koi kinaaraa sanam
ho.., 
nahin koi kinaaraa sanam
tere naam ham ne kiyaa hai, jeevan apnaa saaraa sanam
ho.., 
jeevan apnaa saaraa sanam'''
-------------------------------
Many people will take objection that in 'vaadaa', two 'a' after 'd' are not necessary and it should be spelled as 'vaada'. At the same time, if someone spell it as 'vada', then it becomes laughable because 'vaada' means 'promise' and 'vada' means a cheap fast food people eat on roadside stalls. 
BTW, what makes you name of this town interesting?
