@AryamanA Should(n't) the romanisation be dillī? Wyang (talk) 04:23, 19 November 2017 (UTC)Reply

@Wyang: No, Urdu speakers have Persianized the pronunciation. Urdu دہلی (delhī) has pretty much completely replaced this spelling anyways. —AryamanA (मुझसे बात करेंयोगदान) 15:56, 19 November 2017 (UTC)Reply
@AryamanA Would Urdu دلی and دہلی (dehlī or delhī?) have different pronunciations, though? Not sure if these are valid: دلی میں مضر گیسوں کی وجہ سے مہلِک بیماریاں‎ (0:06), دلی میں ’کار فری ڈے‘‎ (0:07), یومِ خواتین پر دلّی میں مظاہرے‎ (0:26), Colloquial Urdu: The Complete Course for Beginners, Forvo: دلی vs دہلی.
