We use punctuation to denote Karvai. The punctuation symbols used are
Comma (,) and Semi-colon (;). Comma denotes a Karvai of
1 Mathirai, and Semi-colon denotes a Karvai of 2 Mathirai. Karvai greater than 2 Mathirai are denoted by combining atmost one Comma with
more than one Semi-colon(s). The representation are given in
table 2.

It should be noted that at maximum only one Comma can come in any
representation. And the Comma should always come in the inner portion. The
use of such a notation is shown in table 3.
