Grammar Rule in 30 Seconds

Dependent vowels cannot stand alone; they must attach to a consonant to create a sound.

  • Never write a dependent vowel by itself; it needs a consonant host like 'ក'.
  • Dependent vowels can appear before, after, above, or below the consonant.
  • The consonant is always pronounced before the vowel sound.
Consonant (ក) + Vowel (ា) = Syllable (កា)
