What is the difference between रथ(rath)- chariot and रात(rāt/raat)-night? रथ(rath)- chariot has short a. like hut in English. रात(rāt/raat)-night has a long a(aa). like father in English. रथ(rath)- chariot has word ending in थ=th(dental aspirated with an ha sound) रात(rāt/raat)-night has word ending in त= t(dental unaspirated without an ha sound) The correct transliteration for रथ is rath. - chariot The correct transliteration for रात is raat not raath. -night. The't' is unaspirated. These two words can be found in the lessions. नमस्ते -Namaste!
