What happens when the virama (್) is added below the Kannada consonant ಲ?
Hint:
Look for the information about the halant form of ಲ.
The inherent 'a' is still pronounced.
The inherent 'a' is silenced and the consonant can join the next one directly.
The consonant changes its meaning to 'World'.
The consonant changes its meaning to 'Marriage' or 'Horoscope'.
Explanation
The addition of the virama below the consonant ಲ silences the inherent 'a' and allows this consonant to join the next one directly.
