कान्हड़दे प्रबन्ध (कवि पद्मनाभ - जालोर चौहान वीरगाथा, अलाउद्दीन खिलजी से युद्ध व जौहर इतिहास)

": In "आव्या A C", 'य' has a continuous top bar! In "यदी C K", the top bar goes all the way across! There is NO loop! It curves in like 'य'! Wait, let's look at "थिकउ em-": Wait, does the first letter have a continuous top bar? Wait, look at "थिकउ em-": the word is "यथं A"? Wait, the first letter has a continuous bar, and curves: 'य'! The second letter has a broken bar and a loop: 'थ'! With anusvara: 'थं'! So it is "यथं A"! And in "यदी C K": the first letter is 'य', second is 'दी': "यदी C K"! Why would MSS have "यथं" and "यदी"? Because in the manuscript, the scribe misread "थ" as "य"! The original was Old Gujarati "थिकउ", but manuscript A read it as "यथं", manuscript C and K read it as "यदी"! The editor notes this exact scribal error! Scribes read 'थ' as 'य', producing nonsensical "यथं" and "यदी"! That is brilliant and makes 100% philological sense! So it IS: थिकउ em-यथं A, थिकु B D E F J, यदी C K, थकु G.
