Re: [predefined-counter-styles] Requirements of Alphabetic Counter Styles for Indian languages (#36)

hello @vermaprashant1 here is the information i was able to gather and information i still need for each of the above:


# Santali

https://sat.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E1%B1%9C%E1%B1%A9%E1%B1%9C%E1%B1%9A%E1%B1%9E_%E1%B1%9B%E1%B1%9A%E1%B1%A8%E1%B1%A1%E1%B1%9A%E1%B1%A2%E1%B1%9F

This list was long enough for me to establish the full components:
 
```
system: alphabetic;
symbols: ᱚ ᱛ ᱜ ᱝ ᱞ ᱟ ᱠ ᱡ ᱢ ᱣ ᱤ ᱥ ᱦ ᱧ ᱨ ᱩ ᱪ ᱫ ᱬ ᱭ ᱮ ᱯ ᱰ ᱱ ᱲ ᱳ ᱴ ᱵ ᱶ ᱷ;
suffix: ')';
```


# Bengali

The green text is a numeric style with a . separator.  We already have this style documented at https://w3c.github.io/predefined-counter-styles/#bengali-styles  Am i missing something?

Not sure what you wanted me to get out of this video.  Unfortunately, I don't have time to work that out by watching. Please summarise the key points.

This appears to be an alphabetic list with a . suffix.  Only 4 items are listed, however.  To create a rule we need to know what letters are in the full list. For example, the list begins with consonants, rather than independent vowel letters.  Do the latter appear at all?  What consonants appear in the full list - are some letters excluded (eg. what about khanda ta)?  Is the order the same as that in the Unicode block? etc.

Alphabetic list with ) suffix.  Same problem: need to know what's in the full list. 


# Odia

Alphabetic list with prefix ( and suffix ).  Same problem.

Video. Same problem.

Same as first sample for Odia(?)
