In a sentence, when म् occurs at the end of a word, then :

1. It is shown as म् either when the following word begins with any vowel or when it occurs at the end of the sentence or when followed by ",".
   E.g. - A. त्वम् आगच्छ |
             B. आगच्छामि अहम् |
             C. आम्, आगच्छामि अहम् |
2. It is shown by अनुस्वार( ं) when the following word begins with a consonant.
   E.g. - त्वं गच्छ |

When  ं in a word, does not occur at the end, then :

1. It is written as  ं when followed by any sibilant or sonant-aspirate. सिंह: - सिंह: |
2. It is written as the nasal of the class of the following consonant (not a semivowel). अंगम् - अङ्गम् |
3. When  ं occurs before a semivowel, it is written as  ं . संवदति - संवदति |
