Sainath
Its used everywhere in sanskrit grammar.. called Chandhas.
These are taught in the language classes in schools as part of grammar and can be found even in languages derived from Sanskrit like Kannada, Telugu, Hindi etc. I remember these things from my Kannada classes.

Chandas, Vrtta, Lakshana all these will have to be understood with the poetic meters used, with the basis being a binary system of short and long syllables called laghu (1) and guru (0)

In music, the beat combinations are remembered using the 10 fingers to represent the memory wheel yam?t?r?jabh?nasalagam, where in left hand thumb and small finger are bent, and in the right hand the three middle fingers are bent, so all bent fingers represent guru, and all other fingers represent laghu, and then one can practice the beats.

Its used in ancient sanskrit grammar and while teaching the students ancient Indian classical music, to help them easily remember all the basic combinations of rhythm!

okie let me give another example..
consider the word rajasthan
here “”ra”" is twice as long as “”ja”"
I mean “”ra’ is actually pronounced as “”raa”", and “”ja”" as “”ja”" itself,
so “”ra”" is guru (long one) and “”ja”" is laghu (short one)!
Hope you got it.

As per Amitabh Bacchan’s dialogue in a movie – inglish ees a phunni langvaje it may be difficult to identify short/long syllable. I am just providing consonent with actual list of vowels. Nowadays few vowels are dropped out in educational text books itself.

Here is extract of Baraha – a trasliteration free s/w help on consonent with Vowels . Hope it helps the interested

ka kA ki kI ku kU kRu kRU klRu klRU k~e ? ?? ?? ?? ?? ?? ?? ?? ???? ???? ??

ke(short ‘e’) kE kai k~o ko(short “”o”") kO kau ?? ?? ?? ?? ?? ?? ??

kaM kaH
?? ??

According to the pronouciation and above scripting America in different indian language would be
1 0 1 ? ( is it akaarantha masculine gender word)
a mE ri ka
? ?? ?? ? – Devanagari/Hindi
? ?? ?? ? – Kannada
? ?? ?? ? – Malayalam
? ?? ?? ? – Tamil
? ?? ?? ? – Telugu
? ?? ?? ? – Bengali

No, you are wrong… gam is a guru because of the anusvara with it… by definition of a guru.. gam and gAm both are guru

So it is
yamAtArAjabhAnasalagam = 1000101110
yamAtArAjabhAnasalagAm = 1000101110
And either way the formula is correct !
