Why does Asha redirect here? — goethean ॐ 14:58, 27 September 2006 (UTC)
I really would appreciate someone sourcing this before they put it up. Not saying its not true, but its also quite unreasonable to make that statement without some reliable reference. -- Gñāna ( talk) 21:34, 8 June 2010 (UTC)
If anyone can get access to any of the following works, the article may benefit from including any pertinent information they may contain. I'd be very interested to view their bibliographies.

Could someone add IPA (or whatever) symbols to indicate how this word is pronounced?Ken M Quirici 17:50, 3 January 2016 (UTC)
Suggest to add *h₂er- as the (at least apparent) root of the word Ṛta.
On the one hand, it is quite commonly translated 'cosmic order' or 'cosmic harmony'. This interpretation works rather well with its apparent etymology, to the root *h2er, meaning 'fit together', but it requires that in the negated compound anṛta- 'untruth', and in the Avestan cognate aša-, usually rendered 'Truth', the word has undergone serious semantic narrowing.

The article says (Sanskrit ऋतम् ṛtaṃ ...), but ऋतम् would be ṛtam, not ṛtaṃ; and ṛtaṃ would be ऋतं (or possibly ऋतँ), not ऋतम्, so one of them must be wrong.-- 2A00:1028:83D6:8E56:5426:8E98:E171:C032 ( talk) 11:36, 17 November 2017 (UTC)
I think a brief note on pronunciation in the lead sentence would be a massive benefit for readers. — HTGS ( talk) 01:44, 21 June 2023 (UTC)
