        Alright, I know you’re not OP but is the person implying that Kamala is difficult because it has Sanskrit origins?

          No, I’m saying it’s pretty simple. Those are just basic letters.

          Compare that to Donald’s name in devanagari script: डोनाल्ड

          Edit: And also devanagari (along with most Indian script) is phonetic. What you say is what you write. There’s no confusion about pronunciation of letters no matter which word they’re in.
