اشتباهات رایج

Yati is about the caesura and vowel matching, not just end-rhyme.

Wrong: యతిని కేవలం ప్రాస అనుకోవడం. (Thinking Yati is just Prasa/Rhyme.)
صحیح: యతి ఒక నిర్దిష్టమైన స్థానంలో ఉండే విరామం. (Yati is a pause at a specific position.)

Ignoring Gana structure destroys the meter.

Wrong: గణాలను లెక్కించకపోవడం. (Not counting Ganas.)
صحیح: ప్రతి గణాన్ని లఘు, గురువులతో సరిచూడాలి. (Check every Gana with Laghu and Guru.)

Misidentifying vowel length breaks the entire prosodic count.

Wrong: లఘు, గురువులను తప్పుగా గుర్తించడం. (Misidentifying Laghu and Guru.)
صحیح: దీర్ఘాక్షరాలను గురువులుగా గుర్తించాలి. (Identify long vowels as Guru.)
