Consonants ()

Notes :

Consonants are divided into three classes: low ( ), mid ( ) and


high () , which help to determine the tone of a syllable.

The sounds represented by some consonants change when they are used
at the end of a syllable (indicated by the letters on the right of the
slash). Some consonants can only be used at the beginning of a syllable.

Duplicate consonants represent different Sanskrit and Pali consonants


sounds which are pronounced identically in Thai.

The letter o ang acts as a silent vowel carrier at the beginning of words
that start with a vowel.

The names of the consonants are acrophonic and intended to help with
learning them.
