9.B.3. Combined Consonants and Vowels.

There are four symbols which represent a combination of a consonant and a vowel sound.

ฤ

Depending on the word in which it is met,
this represents one of the following combinations.
ริ (RI) รึ (REU) or เรอ (RER)

It is represented in the transliteration by either RI, REU or RER depending on its sound in the particular word.

This is about the only one of the combined consonant and vowel sounds you are likely to meet and it occurs in very few words.

ฤๅ

This represents the sound รือ.
It is represented in the transliteration by “REU”.

ฦ

This represents the sound ลึ.
It is represented in the transliteration by “LEU”.

ฦๅ

This represents the sound ลื.
It is represented in the transliteration by “LEU”.

In the alphabetical order of the dictionary ฤ and ฤๅ will be found after ร and ฦ and ฦๅ after ล.
