This module will transliterate Sanskrit language text per WT:SA TR.
The module should preferably not be called directly from templates or other modules.
To use it from a template, use {{xlit}}
.
Within a module, use Module:languages#Language:transliterate.
For testcases, see Module:sa-Brah-translit/testcases.
