Dear friends,

Found these two words as names for cucumber in Assamese:

তিয়ঁহ, তিঁহু

Let me please know their English transliterations.


Regards.

Dinesh ji
Your fonts did not come though in my mail, but I have found following 

Cucumis sativus      Tiyoh / Tihu

I hope you know this for Assamese names

Gurcharan ji,

Since these are unicode characters, it could be possible that changing settings of "Character Encoding" in your browser to "Unicode (UTF-8)" may help render the Assamese characters.
Suggesting everyone to do this one-time exercise ... else Indic scripts would not display.

Many thanks Gurcharan ji for the Assamese names and the useful link.

Regards.

Am satisfied with inputs given by Gurcharan ji and Narasimha Murthy Soma ji (in a personal response)

তিয়ঁহ ... tiyah OR tiyoh
তিঁহু ... tihu


Many thanks to both of them.

Regards.
