FAQ
Why
is “Jain” sometimes spelled “Jaina”?
Words often have an inherent “a” (pronounced ‘uh’
as in ‘under’) sound at the end of them. Though
English is not very particular about this sound (many English
words are not pronounced phonetically), Indian languages are
very particular about sound. Thus, the word “Jain”,
spelled in Hindi or Gujarati, does contain the inherent “a”
sound at the end. In order to negate this sound, a special
marker is placed under the particular letter.
Thus, when we attempt to translate the word “Jain”
from Prakrit or Sanskrit, we may spell it with our without
the “a”, simply because when spoken, it does contain
an “a” sound at the end. You will find this with
many other words that have been translated from Indian languages
into English.
